[QUOTE="Burrito, post: 835833, member: 72439"] Generally, the most sensitive info is protected, because it's not reachable from the internet. There are separate networks for Secret and Top Secret info. Just talking about hacking.. And there are exceptions to this. But.... there is plenty of sensitive but unclassified info on the internet that gets penetrated regularly. So, uh, this is bad. Specifically, with the Air Force and satellites, sure, this is good. But it sorta misses the point. The same countries that might be able to hack or deny a satellite have anti-satellite capabilities that can kill a satellite. And at that point.... worrying about hacking is sorta silly. [/QUOTE]
