Calm down

..Your pushing a "cybersecurity" agenda but you haven't come up with a single plausible life or death attack scenario....

I'm no pusher.
Cyber security is very important to out way of life now.
An article yesterday was about the VoIP people.
Phone systems very rarely go down, not yet anyway.

..So should they spend money on your Internet firewall/virus detection/ widget projects, or on guards for key installations, flak jackets for troops etc.

Why is it either or?

The military budget is running over $400B.
If the brains in charge can't prioritize then don't balm other projects for sucking up resources.
The money to pay the military like all other government revenue is depensent on the private sector, generating tax revenue.
They're all interconnected.

..He had to choose between jumping to his death...

You should think about patenting totally off base hyperbole.

The choice here is to take cyber security seriously or not.
You compare it to life or death.

Get real, or a life or signup or something.
I'll pay for the vest.
