STUXNET: Astoria power station, 'Drones' Shutting down airports, power outages in UK

It's stuxnet. AKA israel. Keep an eye out for infrastructural shutdowns in the next few days.

For what purpose? They missed the solstice. We're heading into spring now, the time to shut off the grid has come and gone.

boy I'm getting sleepy

For sabotage against US for pulling out of Syria.

So is the great happening
Finally happening?

Things are ramping up heading into January 1st. Next week should be interesting.

Basically this. The air traffic control system in the UK is USA made, so it was the testbed for the release which happened yesterday. It attacks network connectivity for very specific kinds of equipment like power grid controls and radar tracking equipment

Again, for what purpose? Shutting the grid off now makes no sense. Maximum damage would come in winter, which we are now swinging out of

Winter isn't over until February....Are you dumb? Knocking out infrastructure is 101 for disabling a country.

You'll see

Kek/Anti-Christ here, it happened not to far from where I live. It's nothing to be worried about. I also go by my true namesake Christ from now on.

I know that, fuck head. Do you not understand what a solstice is? Wintry solstice was on the 21st. We're already swinging back the other way. To effectively knock out infrastructure they would have to do it earlier. Growing season is only 3/4 months out and we could handle a national crisis of 4 months.

What? Israelis are about revenge you fucking retard. Time of year means nothing.

The scenario you are describing presupposes all other infrastructure will remain intact. What if it isn't user?

Yes it does, stupid. Winter would be the most effective time to shut off infrastructure. Summer makes no sense, you can literally camp for months on end and be fine. For any kind of infrastructure attack winter is the only time it makes sense.
Well power is the catalyst for the rest of the infrastructure anyway. So I was still assuming a shut down of all of it.

Kike. Israel is getting wiped out and your damage control does nothing.

Shut up you fucking retard. It's not damage control, it's common sense. I don't know where the fuck you're from, but people around here could live without power during the spring, summer and fall months. Plenty of people have gardens, we have plenty of streams and rivers for water. People aren't stupid and can boil water without electricity. You're just an idiot, who doesn't understand how an attack on the United States would go.

Nice damage control kike. Muslims are gonna kill all you Israelis soon.

Yeah but the cities, they need power and logistical support regardless of season. Next the EBT/SNAP system gets shut down and we'll have a category V chimpout. Hope you got plenty of ammo.

you're a retard, stuxnet was developed for Iranian nuclear subterfuges which are nothing like an electrical transformer, the systems are very different therefore the malware would have to be very different. I think it would be so different if would have to be a new project, thus a new name.

And wouldn't that problem be even more so in winter time? When people need more energy to survive? Which is my point, you people aren't thinking through. An attack in winter is the only way to ensure maximum damage.

Yes, that is true but technically it is winter right now. Ideally the attack could have happened earlier but as it is it's still damaging.

it is fair to compare it to stuxnet because...
1) malware
2) industrial control systems

>well technically
I'm not here to discuss technicalities. "Technically" speaking, every day they wait to attack, their attack gets weaker. Especially now. Christmas just happened, you don't think SOME people will buy arms and ammunition with their Christmas bonus or Christmad gift? Every day waited is a day lost.

My fellow POLs, it is time we stop spreading fake news. This incident has been determined by experts to be a simple transformer explosion. These things happen. No need to freak out like an alien invasion going on. In fact, experts have specifically said this is NOT an alien invasion.

Its time to stop posting and participating in threads of this nature. Our experts have created dozens of other threads for you participate in. Please post in one of those from now on.

not true. it was developed to interfere with Siemens VFD controllers, which get control commands through network signals to control electric motors.

Look into it

the pull out method doesn't werk

Here in California it has been unusually cold and unusually dry. I think there are giant dehumidifiers in Area 51.

>1) malware
you can't compare wannacry to flame even though they are both malware they have very different objectives.
>2) industrial control systems
Stuxnet was for a SCADA system. Electric grids are ICS systems. Thus this cannot be stuxnet. There may be parts of stuxnet integrated in to the malware if this is a cyber attack. I doubt it. Electrical grids fail all the time.
Why are you shitposting on Jow Forums and not working lmao you sound competent.

>I'm literally too stupid to Google "winter solstice"-the post

The control systems / PLCs are basically the same. If you have access to the system somehow you can wreck it.
Most vital systems are "air gapped" but that didn't protect the Iranian centrifuges - they made the operators plug in USB drives containing the malware.
Another thing are small, unmanned substations with physical access to the internal network - use a crowbar on the door and plug yourself in...

Because they know I'm not larping. Get lost you trip faggot

>scandi girls have thing happen, full details slowly reveal themselves to the world
>news says: neck injuries

>a transformer apparently explodes in the early hours of the morning

wew

im not convinced incase that was unclear.

Stuxnet was a piece of malware that targeted one specific plant. It was programmed to stay inactive anywhere else, even if the same software environment (Siemens PCS7) was present.
So it will not be literally Stuxnet.
But using the same technology on another plant is possible.

how is alex jones not talking about this?

I know, I'm just saying that to the general population stuxnet is just a stand in for "state-level cyber attack"

>the same technology
Don’t expect disclosure. I believe there were similar attacks 11 yrs ago and it was successfully covered up.

11 years ago almost no one in industrial control systems gave a shit about security, so maybe yes.

So what's going to happen? Nationwide power outages and (((ISIS))) style death squads?

Jeez. I remember PopSci doing a cover story on EMP in the 90's. I bought that fucker quick. Wish I still had it. EMPs are easypeasy and more destructive than a nuke. I never thought it'd be this long before usage but now that I think of it, this is one of the most devastating times now that digital is everywhere.

I'm going with an orbital missile defense system gone haywire or being highjacked. The very regular, very steady pulsing gives hints to the possible use of a laser when you watch closely. The lack of green and orange arcs, the continued burning (after most power systems would auto-isolate the circuit and reroute power) and the thermal blooming and suffusion of light in some videos (being almost perfectly circular when seen from below) also seems odd. There was a ground stop issued for nearby LaGuardia as well, even after the light was gone and power, etc. was confirmed restored and steady.

It was not STUXNET. If any sabotage was afoot, it was likely Russian or Chinese (their toolkits are heavily informed by **UXNET and the released kits from various agencies but it was likely NOT Israel or even Iran), but my theory is that an SDI platform satellite or prototype of the same is involved. We would otherwise have had definite and solid answers by now. There are no transformers whose capacitance would allow that long of an arcing incident after depowering (which was certainly done almost immediately by safety systems).

Your mileage may vary, but when I saw it online and observed, the fire sure seemed to pulse verrrry precisely. Pulsing lasers is used to prevent plasma formation that could block a continuous beam (and within the atmosphere, the plasma could go right back to the laser itself). If there is a video somewhere of the beginning of the incident, with the light slowly spreading out in rough time with the pulses, that would settle it, as the plasma dispersal and ionization process from forcing the beam through the atmosphere would proceed in a long pulse, then a pause for the plasma to degrade and disperse, then smaller pulses (that push through, but also are somewhat absorbed by remnant plasma, illuminating it in the color of the laser)-disperse pattern.

Interesting that the wavelength is so close to sky blue, is it not?

we're literally 7 days into winter

checked and this.

See

This is the future I chose and wanted, but I'm still nervous.

Pretty fucked society, as long as someone finds a way to do mass damage they will exploit it. Media enables it, they could have just not covered it at all, let the British police handle it, but nope they had to tell everyone how to disrupt air travel or blow up power stations with some cheap 500 dollar.

Did you forget about winter? December 20th was the START of winter. Jesus christ, American education y'all.

March 20th actually.

And December 21st is the winter solstice, you retarded fuck.

Guys, he's saying that we've already past the solstice so they should have done it earlier

>Amerimutts not understanding weather, the thread

interesting shill behavior ITT. Lots of derail shilling on these threads today.

Winter solstice has nothing to do with how cold it is. March is far colder than November. The middle of the coldest part of winter is ahead of us

Derailing what? This thread was shit from the very start.

I live in central MA near Boston and all day today my coworker's cells were getting messages about intermittent 911 shortages. I found it very strange that this is coinciding with the transformer blowing in NYC and NYC reportedly having similar problems with their 911 system (also those reports of Kentucky having similar issues yesterday)

People here are blaming it on the weather because we're having an icy/rainy day but we've had far worse weather without 911 issues before.

How do you derail a schizo slide thread? It was shitposting from the start.

Sometimes you just have to ignore them

Winter is good. Plenty of clean water around.

Please tell me your joking winter has barely begun you dense cunt

The system beneath infrastructure is community. It's harder than you think to break community, and community will maintain commerce.
