Subject: [gentoo-user] Somewhat OT:  Any truth to this mess?
Date: Sat, 18 Feb 2012 04:26:02 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F3F7CBA.9020600@gmail.com> (raw)

Howdy,

I ran across this and though it was a joke.  Did a news search and sure
enough, it is reported in lots of places.  Random linky:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2102856/Will-FBI-shut-Internet-March-8-virus-concerns.html?ito=feeds-newsxml

Is there any truth to this mess?  My bigger and better question, how is
shutting down the internet going to fix this?  When the net comes back
up, they are still going to be infected.  Right?

I'm glad I run a really nice Linux OS.

Dale
