The real program to sabotage Iran's nuclear facilities was far more sophisticated than anyone realized.

Interesting article about the evolving world of cyber attacks and campaigns.

If this should be outside of politics please move.
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Have to register to view the article.  =|
Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.
I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith

That works. The first one was a direct link to the site that initially posted the article so, no joy. Gizmodo doesn't require registration.

The Gizmodo link is just a summery of the original article. The FP link is a bit over my head on the techno side but was really really interesting.

Apparently I must have registered at FP at some point. The Gizmodo summery does a better job at summarizing the article than I could, yet the article was magnitudes more interesting than the summery.

Sorry for the rabbit trail!

Worked fine on my tablet using Opera mini.
A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?
