alt Hacker Newsthis makes me remember Trinity doing the power plant escalation hack in the 2nd Matrix movie

(btw that movie is TWENTY-SEVEN YEARS OLD)

I was in the theater when that first played. Half of the theater were cheering, some standing up. Many movie-goers were very confused. Yes she used nmap [1] and then sshnuke [2] and given she was hacking a power company it would not surprise me if that exploit worked in some utility companies today.
