Apparently Stuxnet might be partially responsible for Iran's delays with it's centrifuges. Creator's gotta be loling if true.

seems ridiculously sophisticated compared to regular internet lulz. that's not to say it necessarily had to be the work of a nation state or related security agency, as there are very clever people out there working gratis. and how did the worm get on the systems anyway? are semi-clandestine nuclear sites really connected to the intarwebs?

There were some rumors the Mossad were behind Stuxnet. Of course, nobody would own up.

Fark.com mentioned something similar. It joked that everyone was stumped at the mysterious fact that the program was written in hebrew...

I wouldn't be surprised if Mossad or the CIA or NSA were behind it.

what's publicized, obviously.

this is propaganda garbage.

the united states gov. conceals news from its own corporations that have serious technology issues with i.t., and ask other large corporations to patch holes quickly before it leaks into the media, to maintain status quo.
