Can you clarify this? I remember seeing some articles about this tactic in maybe 2010, but nothing before then. I recall the Gulf War and OIF/OEF infrastructure damage being primarily from aerial bombing, but it's possible I missed the articles about the hacking element.
I'm not doing the snarky "citations pls" thing; I don't dispute it happened. I just want to know more.
