A excellent article that raises the question of why are we ignoring the biggest existential threat we face in the West, when all of the signs tell us otherwise. The threat that is cyber.

‘Cyberspace has become the most dangerous and defenseless ecosystem on the planet. Instead of calling time out and rebuilding it to be more secure, we play the role of rats on spinning wheels foolishly thinking we can outrun the never-ending exploits of national adversaries, hackers, terrorist, traffickers and all-around creeps who are more than willing and capable of taking advantage of the internet’s porous qualities.’

As the author rightly points out, would you share you physical infrastructure with a nation state? No. So do we share our digital infrastructure? While some governments are working towards addressing a whole of society approach to cybersecurity. It requires all nations states to work towards a similar goal.
