Foreign hackers need to face real consequences (politico.com)

How about local hackers? Best work on fixing the attribution so it's even reasonably sure who was foreign.


The problem is it's hard to determine exactly who--or even where--the culprit really is.

Instead we need to put consequences on these companies for creating these troves of spy-data in the first place.

Imagine if the problem was: "Foreign hackers need to face consequences for making cars explode." Sure, prosecuting them is a good idea, but the first priority should be to stop making cars that can be exploded by anyone.
