Maybe China and those people are on the same team. I can see that.

Funny how the FBI isn't looking into the fact that lots of people at 1600 Pennsylvania had financial interests from the Chinese Government.

I just pray if the grid does go down, Americans hold accountable the right commies.

Grid down right before they invade Taiwan. Require a public commitment to not hinder the invasion from the US Gov. What would you do?

Even with arfcom GD being a very bias sample, I find the poll results surprising.  60% have 30+ days of water, food, fuel, meds?  


My guess at the actual would be under 10%

The US government and cronies have been giving the Chicoms every opportunity they can to get into and ahead of the USA.

Inviting them to higher education
Inviting them into investment
Inviting them into corporations
Inviting them to own real property
Inviting them to have birthing centers for birthright citizenship which is also a corruption and false practice.
Everything on insecure electronics connected to inherently insecure WWW..

So it can be hacked.

Nobody is this stupid but many are this corrupt and greedy.

Was going to ask if this might have been a test run after seeing the story on the news tonight.  They tried to blame 3 states losing their 911 system on a construction crew cutting 1 fiber line while installing a traffic light.  How does 1 fiber run near a street light shut down 911 operations in 3 states?

Yep, systems will go down on election night and days later we'll be told Biden won again with more votes than ever. It will give them plenty of time to double check that they didn't cheat too much as well as time to destroy any evidence.

The threat is very real. Two years ago I would see about 60 million security log entries a month on the systems I'm currently managing.  Last month we saw 300 million security logs. They are the same systems.  In the last 48 hours I've seen over 10 million attempts to break into my network via a recently announced vulnerability. The attempts to brute force into our VPN. Have gone from several dozen a day to about 30,000 a day.

there is a very real possibility for the month of April. I will see 1 billion security entries into our logging systems.

FBI is a lying sack of shit criminal organization, it's absolutely just as likely that they are in fact going to do the cyber-attack themselves to pursue whatever fucked-up agenda they have themselves. Possibly to wreck the elections with some false-flag shit.

Yes. 30kwh for now. I plan to eventually go to 60kwh of batteries. That's what I'll need for full winter electric heating. I'll probably add another inverter and 7kwh to 10kwh more in panels to ensure better cloudy day coverage. I have enough to cover everything but winter heat currently.

Stories like this are predicated on a hidden assumption: that All, emphasis All, American utilities and other backbone industries are sitting around with their thumb up their ass waiting for a bell to go off so they can switch thumbs.

My experience is somewhat to the contrary, we are not at the mercy of clueless feckless critical providers ripe for the picking.

I'm sure the chinese can kick us in the shins, probably not the balls, and I'm very skeptical that they're going to pwn us to any significant degree.
