In "CyberWar" Patrica Smith wants to know, as stated in the article, "Are we facing a "cyber Pearl Harbor" that could wreak havoc on our computer networks-and our lives." This quote probably means that if people keep hacking into our computer networks, it could mess up many important things that run through these networking sites everyday. I believe this should be stopped immediately.

This article includes quotes from counter terrorism officials, and experts. One quote that stood out to me was "By the time the virus was stopped, it had infected and made useless more than 30,000 computers." This fact shows how powerful viruses are and how many computers can get infected. It doesn't just infect computers that it's directed, but also other computers around the world. Another fact that stood out to me was "In 2009, a sophisticated computer worm known as Stuxnet wiped out a fifth of Iran's centrifuges, which are used to enrich uranium, setting back its ability to make nuclear weapons by several years." This fact shows that if someone wanted to bomb Iran, it may have been easy to do so because Iran wouldn't be able to create weapons in order to fight back. Not just any weapon to fight back, but a powerful nuclear bomb.

I think that cyberwar is wrong. It can infect too many computers with just one virus. Also destroying important information can lead to many problems. I don't think its fair that the virus can spread; that means people would have to spend money to get their computers. That wouldn't be smart because the virus could always spread to that computer too.
