Because if you can do that you can spend a few million dollars to hack millions of Teslas causing hundreds of thousands of deaths.
You are literally comparing a few bombs to Hiroshima. Except nuclear weapons cost billions to develop, billions to produce and deploy, are complex and difficult to successfully use against targets, and are almost impossible to use stealthily.
Turns out handing out nuclear weapons for less than the cost of a tank, or you know starting a new McDonald’s franchise, is a serious cause for concern.
- darkwater 3y agoAn operation like that is not going to be simple, I would not say it's akin to developing your own nuclear bomb but If you have some serious funding your can plant bombs just the same. It's not something that your isolated 30 men terrorist group will pull off.
- Veserv 3y agoAre you seriously trying to state that killing 100,000 people through a coordinated clandestine bombing campaign in another country is even comparable to the difficulty of just spending a few million dollars to develop that same remote capability via a software attack? It is estimated that a few hundred thousand have died in the Russo-Ukrainian War and that has cost billions and required open warfare. It literally costs 1,000x as much to cause such casualties using traditional techniques. Conflating them makes about as much sense as claiming that Usain Bolt is neck-and-neck with a Atlas V rocket or that Earth is basically the same size as Jupiter.
