Oh how the turntables
Several U.S. government agencies warned that unidentified hackers are trying to breach devices made by Siemens t
That's a completely different statement from the one in the title.
I guess turnabout is fair play.
(Stuxnet was an advanced collection of zero-day exploits built by Israel and the US that led to Iranian centrifuges, made by Siemens, slowly dismantling themselves during operation.
