  • What would happen if hackers got into our country's water systems. The White House doesn't want to find out. Last month, federal officials sent a letter to Gov. Brian Kemp and other governors across the country. They implored them to assess vulnerabilities in local water departments and fix them, or else risk a debilitating hack that could impact crops, drinking water, even health systems.

    If the boarder had remained closed we wouldn’t be in this situation, allowing around 7 million unvetted people just to walk right into our cities has put everyone at risk, FJB

      A Computer wouldn't know squat without Human Creativity and Information Input by Humans. It would be the things that aren't human that people need to know about since these things always seem to throw rotten eggs into everything good and decent.

      You're right. It feels like fear, extortion and a lack of proper security measures, no matter the amount of the Millions/Billions of Dollars that's Paid monthly for Water, Locally or Nationwide.

    This is a horribly bad story. All water systems are simple and have manual backup. Stop trying to scare people with nonsense
