Thanks, jamboybarry.
Looks like our DoD concludes that computer sabotage can constitute an armed attack that warranting a US response using traditional military force.
Last time I posted this thread, some computer network gurus expressed a belief that a cyberattack in the US could never "bring down the grid" or otherwise cause catastrophic economic harm.
Were they wrong?
