     @gabriel He is 100% correct

     I’m not going to spoil #MrRobot for you but suffice it to say that in that show some characters learned this lesson the hard way

     Sounds about right, but we have two important letters that we would like to share with him.

     The first letter is 'C' and the second letter is 'f'.

     They don't need an #EMP if they control 90% of the internet alongside fellow #fascist plutocrats.

     @gabriel couldn't be more wrong
     the current trend is aggressive centralization into just a few providers
     99% of organizations cybersecurity plans are bureaucratic box-checking capable of stopping nothing but a random kid across the street stealing wifi
     the hardware is all fundamentally the same and the software is the same shit replicated and repackaged countless times across countless final products. remember log4j being in literally everything?
     there are MILLIONS of midwits with MBAs who show up to work every day, on a mission to gut your so called resilient cold war infrastructure in the name of maximizing this quarter's profit. NOTHING matters more to every business on the planet than the number going up this quarter, next quarter, and the quarter after that.
     it didn't take total compromise of all systems to shut down that gasoline pipeline, just the billing system

     @skylar @gabriel I was doing a cybersecurity plan a few years ago and everything is COMPLETELY hostile to actual security and oriented around, exactly as you said, checking boxes. If you do something novel or better, you can't check the specific box; automated vulnerability detection tools get confused and penalize you; auditors argue with you. It was really demoralizing.
