It seems like there are two (or more) issues:
1) Any inviting target will be ... targeted and so likely breached at least at some points. The article is correct that expect a single target to invulnerable is a mistake.
2) US (and other corporate) systems download untestable binary blobs from third parties as standard operating procedure, not because no one understands the risks but because they aren't concerned with the eventual costs (and happy with the immediate benefits). Similarly, everything gets connected to everything in a whole variety of systems (the sabotaged water system and the cars sabotaged by auto-maker-server-sabotage are just things coming through in the last few days or weeks).
It seems like a critical analysis should look at point two so the article's nothing can be done implication is here not appealing. Here, the problem seems hypothetically addressable. This may also be unsolvable but it seems closer to solvable. If the US imposed cyber security standards, a solution would seem more likely, etc.
