Down under here in Australia we are the recipients of a constant barrage of cyber attacks from things as diverse as large television networks to small mail exchanges.

Maybe it is just cyber criminals looking to make some more protection money OR is it something more sinister such as a certain superpower who have become "pissed off".

My personal view is that THEY are practising on a small fish in the pond so that if "push comes to shove" say over who owns the  rights to international sea lanes for the passage of commercial shipping then WHAM BAM.

As we all know by now the whole world is a "global village" connected by arrays of computer networks that can be manipulated by nerd hackers.

Missiles themselves can be sabotaged on the launch pad.This happened to the North Koreans a fewyears ago.

I Think that the way to offset this happening on a large scale to say a western bloc country is to go LOW TECH.

Get thousands of savvy computer programmers to each disconnect small parts of the GRID and "own it".Manually change codes hourly so to speak so that the electronic invasion is "fragmentated".

At the moment computers are talking to each other and running the worldwide GRID as a single unit.
