This is the sort of thing that was always going to happen after Grandpa Poopy Pants & Rotted Melon Husk turned a bunch of RedBull fueled, snot nosed, pubeless punks loose on our nation's administrative systems with codebreakers & chainsaws.

⚠️ Issued by the FAA just moments ago, ALL US airports are currently ground stopped. This means NO flights may depart for US airports. Flights already in the air will be allowed to land. This is related to an FAA equipment outage.

Women of the navy listened for enemy signals. Codebreakers in Ottawa worked to read the enemy's messages.
Their work helped protect lives.
We remember all who served, and those who never came home.
Lest we forget.

Ideally we verify and/or switch to new crypto quickly. Maybe cryptography is fine but I'd sure like to double check.

As I'm sure you know there's a lot more to technology than firepower and armor.
The allies had radar, the cavity magnetron, an edge on jet engines, codebreakers that made the enigma machine less than useless, and of course, The Bomb
Germans had their rockets

Artificial intelligence is pushing advances in various mathematics fields at an unprecedented rate, conquering problems that our puny human minds have wrestled with for centuries. The fear is that this could include new solutions to the math problems that keep our encrypted communications encrypted.
