Here’s something that will blow your mind. Most U.S. water systems have internet-based logic controllers. And a large number of them use NO PASSWORDS OR DEFAULT PASSWORDS. Yeah. Public water systems ready for the hacking. Which came to light because there are signs of attacks. Enough of them that CISA had to issue a warning to all water facilities, recommending they disconnect them or actually use a fucking password. CNN cites about 30 water systems were attacked this week, with six other states having reported related cyber incidents. A security expert in the water sector said “the scale and coordination of the recent cyberattacks targeting Minnesota water suppliers is unprecedented.” https://www.cnn.com/2026/07/31/politics/sweeping-cyberattack-us-water-systems #Water #Utilities #Hackers #WaterSystems #WaterFacilities #InfoSec #Passwords

Important reminder that tech solutions like #encryption, panic buttons, and duress #passwords alone are unlikely to save us from #authoritarianism. #Democracy and #HumanRights need organising and real-world resistance to be protected. https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/24/us-accuses-american-of-allegedly-wiping-his-phone-using-a-duress-password-during-border-search/
