Leftists: "Shutdown that pipeline! It's going to kill the environment!!"
Also Leftists: "This is ridiculous! Every station within 20 miles is out of GAS, and I have to get to my protest meetings!!"

Gas Company CAVED, Pays $5M Ransom To Restart Gas Pipeline,
Biden Blames RUSSIANS As Gas prices Rise

This is why gas sucks. So easy to fuck over America. Imagine if we were at war and all it took was 1 cyber attack or one physical attack on the gas pipelines to cripple the USA...

or maybe you should separate your SCADA systems from the rest of your info networks?

If his FBI wasn't busy wasting time looking at BS things, they might have been able to prevent this. If ransom is paid once, expect it to happen again. Who ever sleepy joe is blaming, I'm gonna hold off on making a blame, but thinking it probably isn't who he's blaming.
BRB undoing Trump XO about letting Chinese nationals be in control of major instructor companies.

True, still doesn't solve that 1 missile or an attack can disrupt it.

Missile attack? By whom?
You can't destroy something and then demand $5M for it.
Stick to the facts of the event -- not hypotheticals.
Your comment is irrelevant.

Ransomware is basically a bomb that the victim is unlikely to defuse in time which can be set off early by attempting to disarm it.
I think OG was talking about a missile attack without forewarning, not a threat to attack unless money is paid.
Regardless, it's off topic. This is about the Energy Secretary confirming the opposite of Biden's executive actions against the Dakota and XL Pipelines:
Pipelines are the best method for transporting petroleum and petroleum products. In this shutdown, people should be taking note as to the consequences of shutting down and preventing the addition of pipelines in the US.

You haven't shown me to be wrong, Mr. "I'm never wrong".
I'm not deflecting. I'm calling you out for trying to start another argument. Saying I was wrong and not engaging in a stupid argument is Trolling, pure and simple.

Ransomware Attack Hits DC Police Department
https://youtu.be/xwqa9-FJvvg
Different type of extortion than the pipeline. Took sensitive data from the system and demanded $4M to prevent having the data released to the public.
DC Police tried to offer $100K, and in response a portion of the stolen data has been posted to the Dark Web.

That's true of many utilities. Take out an important choke point/hub and cripple a company.
Gas does have an advantage, that it could be moved by truck if it came to it.

According the the report I listened to they didn't attack the actual software/hardware that controlled the movement of gas, they attacked the software that kept track of billing. The gas companies could have kept sending gas but they shut it down because they couldn't charge people for the gas and to be safe incase the hackers had also infiltrated that system.
Or am I misunderstanding what the SCADA systems are?
