Foreign Hackers are “21st Century Nuclear Weapons” & a cyber 9/11 could happen “imminently”: Reuters/Foreign Policy

A bit of exaggeration here.

Deborah Charles reports for Reuters on how DHS Secretary Napolitano said a “‘cyber 9/11’ could happen ‘imminently.'”

Foreign Policy’s John Reed writes on John Kerry’s commentary during his Secretary of State confirmation hearings.  Sen. Kerry reasonably suggested the need for “cyber diplomacy,” but then suggested that cyberweapons  are “the 21st-century nuclear weapons equivalent.”
