The hacktivism phorum has now been officially initiated--or lost its
virginity--with a news story from yesterday's Washington Post on "cyber
warfare."

Is this typical disinformation from the Post? Did the military really
conduct electronic terrorism during the War Against Yugoslavia?

The most fascinating aspect of this article is how the Washington Post
bring up the "reluctance" by the Pentagon to conduct "warfare" that
could have been construed as war crimes. The Post feels comfortable
talking about hypothetical NATO cyber-war crimes, yet has been unable to
report on international efforts to charge NATO officials with the more
mundane variety of war crime.

<sigh> Why am I surprised?
