alt Hacker NewsYes, you're missing that if you mess with the power grid the US will go and kinetically strike back (read: bomb your country) or attack you with its own cyber warfare capabilities, unlike the EU. That's why the EU is experiencing cyber attacks and cyber warfare with clear culpability from Russia, but is unable to do much about it besides give Ukraine more weapons. If Russia launched a cyber attack and shut down JFK the way it did Heathrow, the US would actually do something about it even with all the Trump is a Russian agent stuff aside.

Russia conduct cyber attacks on US all the time. North Korea did a high profile attack too. China flew a balloon over the whole country, not bothering a single airport, without any response. US never does anything to anyone that can hit back.
Sounds too good to be true. I'd love to believe it.
Didn't russia claim to have the full Epstein files, so how did they get them if not by hacking US government?
Attribution of cyber attacks is extremely difficult, and US seems to notoriously under invest into infrastructure. Unlike other countries, most of the power grid is above ground. How can you be so sure that it is safe?
