@malwaretech @mttaggart Let us consider an, ahem, hypothetical scenario.

North Korea sends a bunch of kids to study in China and tells them "make X mount of dollars annually for the Party or else".

Kid starts writing a ransomworm. In mid-development, worm escapes, gets to the USA, and due to a lack of any kill switches in it, causes billions of dollars of damage. Worm's origin is traced to China.

Was this an attack? Did China attack the USA? Did North Korea? Was it an operation of the North Korean government? Should the USA nuke either or both of these countries?
