That's a good point -- Russia doesn't want to massively escalate against the US with an all-out cyberattack. I've often wondered if total war against Russia or China would show how fragile our internet-connected infrastructure is, with e.g. important people's bank accounts vanishing with no evidence they ever existed.

Funny you mention only "important peoples bank accounts" Because if they just wiped all the poor peoples accounts that would be enough for complete internal revolt

I would hope that the accounts cannot be so thoroughly deleted.

But the point is valid.

Exactly.
