Let's realize something here that I can attest to being 100% correct; the US government is abysmally behind the curve ball on anything and all things technology. I really even hate stating that because we are operating on a kind of inertial perception of America's cyber might that partially was conjured through movies and perception, but reality is that we are really bad off. We're not just behind the curve ball, we're on a short bus trying to figure out how to get to the damn ballpark. The problem is a systemic one too, a lack of actual leadership, a personnel problem if you will.
