My assumption is we'll see a lot more hacking attempts/sucess stories in the media. 1.) Partially because there are actual takes and the NSA/Five-Eye attempts to ensure the existence of backdoors/cover-up security has made things weaker 2.) If their going to push CISA it will be necessary to portray some present danger. One frustrating part to me is the lack of investigation about claims that the hacking occurred. For example, with the DHS hack the primary evidence that China was responsible was a DHS spokesperson and anonymous sources claiming it to be so. Some alternate sites dig into these stories but its representative, to me, of the corporate media/government relationship.

Interesting. I wonder how long before the media blows this up.

I wonder if it was a actually attack or not. I wouldn't be surprised if it was organized to pass more laws.
