Putting the hacking out of it. Remote centralized control is risky for other reasons. Buggy code or a poor ruleset pushed on a friday afternoon would have the same effect. Its bad practice to put all of your eggs in one basket like this. Not everything should be remotely controlled.
Comment on Cyberattack destroys food at hundreds of French grocery stores
Hirom@beehaw.org 1 week agoI disagree. For any given attack, the attacker has most responsibilty. Destroying food is particularily vicious. If someone breaks into a house, taking davantage of an old rusted lock, and trashes the inside, the owner shouldn’t be called stupid.
It’s certainly a good idea a harden security and replace weak locks when the number of attacks increase.

But, it seems, they "upgraded" from strong to weak!?
What was wrong with the fridges they had 2/5/10/20 years ago.
