How can it still take 5 minutes or longer for my laptop to boot up?
And how in the hell does top secret military information show up on a social media site for unwarranted eyes to see? The U.S. has some seriously debilitating chinks in its cyber armor, and Russia seems light years ahead of us when it comes to exploiting and exposing plans and weaknesses.
It’s the nature of the technology, I guess, but it’s also inexcusable. Holding our own in cyberspace is as critical as any other aspect of this fucking animosity we seem to want to perpetuate. We put people on the moon– almost fifty-four years ago– with the computing power found in a washing machine. It’s way past time we ramped things up and got our ass in gear.
Probably not the best analogy, and I’m sure the goal posts are constantly moving when it comes to cyber security, but you know what I mean. If we’re putting all our eggs in the internet basket, we better learn how to defend ourselves there.
