Yeah technology will most likely be our downfall as we are too reliant on it.
Seems that it will be the shadow government that pulls the plug and sets things on fire.

The primary enemy fedgov is fighting is us.

My concern is the NOKO and Chicoms may have already planted worms or trojan horses in our electric grid or telecommunications systems that can be activated any time or are programmed to activate on a specific date. I know that, at least 5 years ago, the ATC system was very vulnerable and in the 1990’s they quit training terminal controllers on using non-radar procedures because “we have computer backup systems like Cenrap”.

Not a matter of if, but when.

I’m more afraid of our own government destroying us from within than I am of foreign enemies that hate us.

Aint that a darn shame?

One simple thing that would rebuild the US electronic industry as well as short circuit the possibility of a back-door attack would be to require that all combat electronics have critical parts (CPU, RAM, disks, I/O) made in the US by US owned companies.

It'll cost more, but when DoD overpays for everything anyway, that won;t make much of a difference. And at least we wouldn't be building gear around processors made in 3rd world semi-Communist countries.

I agree with some the idiots, I have saw lately most of them out for themselves instead of the safety &prosperity of our nation.
