Lockheed Martin, US Navy Billion Dollar Intranet Hit by Worms
This is funny to me, but I know it isn't to others. Although some will argue it's a threat to the nation, I see it as important in keeping away the delusion that we will be safe through technology - we aren't. Pretty soon someone will be able to hack into military code and access weapons that can kill peoplem and then what? The point is to make sure they can't ever get that far because the worms will keep exposing the flaws - endlessly.
