Ha! Fooled ya. I'm not saying that large-scale cyber warfare is imminent, by any means. It's just something people should have a plan for, and generally don't. I've reworded my post to sound less alarmist, such wasn't my intent. At least prepare for electric grid failure in the event Earth is hit by a sizeable coronal mass ejection, which will become more likely (though still a long shot, statistically) as we approach solar maximum in about four years. And once I'm finally done with school, I'm gonna get Ham radio operator certs. Not primarily because tinfoil; because fun. But hey, this is the first time we've killed a senior member of another nation's military since WW2. To pretend like none of this is a big deal is also probably unwise.
