Thoughts on Stuxnet

Stuxnet: Anatomy of a Computer Virus from Patrick Clair on Vimeo.

Yea, so if virii can fuck infrastructure… particularly centralised infrastructure, then there’s another driver to take (your) infrastructure off-grid… or at least to decentralise and diversify.

Quite strange… how the internet that was invented to create resilience through decentralisation might just be forcing decentralisation on ALL hierarchical/monolithic systems… not just institutionally but infrastructurally as well. It’s an ecosystem that forces ecosystemisation upon everything it touches.

Which is everything
