    There was recently a massive cyber attack conducted on both the U.S. and Canada. Officials think China was involved which isn't very surprising since they have done it several times befpre on the Pentagon.

    It's not an attack, it was state-sponsored cyber espionage. There's a big difference.

    Link to the story, because OP didn't post one:

    :-B

    No, it's Blackout, most notable for the cyber attack at the beginning of the film, and whose only line was "All hail Megatron!"

    My fault for not putting quotation marks in there.


    EDIT 2 - Though to be fair, this is not Megatron either.
