YouTube gee-whiz, complete with bad but wishful computer animation, for man groupies who get erections over technical applications for making slipping it to others far poorer more tactically efficient. Consider for a moment the wonderland on display here, completely isolated and out of touch with the rest of the country. (“Nearly 15% of the U.S. […]

Computer viruses/malware on US military networks are not remarkable. Ever since I wrote a book on computer viruses in 1994, so it has been. Some of them rise to newsworthiness. Most don’t.

A Washington Post blog entry on the matters introduces the issue: [A] newly disclosed U.S. intelligence assessment describes American concerns that China might be developing sophisticated weapons to zap the self-governing island’s electronics, or perhaps to use against an American aircraft […]
A classic on the Empire’s Dog Feces beat today, courtesy of one of the many cheerleaders for arms-manufacturing disguised as journalists, W. J. Hennigan. Hennigan’s e-mail must now be jammed with junket offers from the domestic arms industry. And that’s because he regularly acts as a stenographer for Raytheon project developers.
