I want to be clear. I expect you to be able to produce credentials to back up what you're saying.
I also expect you to not pay to promote tweets that aren't blatant lies. My expectations are normal with others... but with you, John, it's pure
.
Wheres your credentials, John?
And also.... ok ok, let's pretend that you actually have not just minimal (you don't), but exceptional tech skills (you really don't).
What do you expect?
Do you think it's like, in the basement of the House of Representatives is a machine you hook up to, where you get transported into "TRON land" into a meta-physical X-wing that flies around and shoots giant viruses and defends against attacks from tie-fighters being flown by the evil empire? You better be fast, government and infrastructure assets are distributed all over the world and namespace. Many of these are even private companies, likely including ALL of the servers for a particular "power grid."
I bet you do. You can't possibly assume that you're going to be elected into sysadmin for all government institutions, replacing thousands of different people on hundreds of teams in hundreds of different departments, AND all of the private companies that contract out to the government (which is the vast majority of everything new), do you? And that you're going to also replace all the developers and recode everything insecure to be secure? And also replace all teams running on all vendor assets (think Meltdown / spectre for an example of how deep this needs to go)? And even if you did, that you'd be able to predict and protect against even by far the most common attack vector, social engineering?
No.... that'd be crazy. You're probably misinformed and believe the Star Wars / Tron crossover thing.
Godspeed, Wu pilot.
The internet is not a big truck. It's a series of Death Stars.
