Yes, utilities shouldn’t be negligent, but national security is 100% the federal government’s responsibility. If the vulnerabilities were so trivial, then it’s even more damning that the federal government was caught with its pants down, particularly since they were the only ones who knew they would be starting a war.

Your entire comment was finger pointing…
There are over 150k water utilities alone in the US.
Passing the buck to the Federal Government is not understanding the problem.
