>As the article indicates, the new convention would parallel the protection of civilians in the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949 by protecting civilians from being targets of nation-state cyberattacks, not prohibiting cyberattacks generally.
Out of their six points four simply make cyber attacks harder or nearly impossible, one exempts civilian targets from attacks, and one guarantees government help in defense and cleanup.
I struggle to see much more here than an attempt from tech companies to prevent cyber war, and have them as untargatable combatants if cyber war st still occurs.
