No, it’s the judges. Lawyers stretch laws to win a case or obtain settlement. They’re scum.

The playbook, per federal officials, was crude but effective: attackers remotely accessed internet-facing operational technology, changed device IP addresses and passwords, and locked utility operators out of their own monitoring and control systems, NBC News reported. The PSA is now pleading with utilities to do the bare minimum - pull programmable logic controllers off the open internet and put them behind gateways and firewalls, use actual passwords, and restrict which devices are allowed to talk to one another.

Absolutely 100% spot on. It’s not a political issue, it’s a technical issue. Disconnect them from the internet. Run your security patches. Check your logs. Water supplies are pretty important, do your job.
Re:Scope of Hacks on U.S. Water Supply Widens as Evidence Points to Iran

A public water authority needs to step it up, at least to the level of other public water authorities who don’t have the problem.
Simple matter of disconnecting it from the internet and running security patches, c’mon man!

CISA staff doesn’t do security patches and updates on local water supplies.
You’re mixing a lot of stuff around there, none of it relevant to the discussion.

I know it’s weird for the tendies here, but both sides have to follow the law and respect the law. Not a hard concept. That’s why we have laws. If you don’t like the laws where you are, move to a place that has laws compatible with your views.
