Gas stations from Florida to Virginia have closed their pumps and a state of emergency has been declared by the governor of North Carolina after Colonial Pipeline was forced to shut off the nation’s big fuel pipeline when it was hacked.
The FBI has confirmed that DarkSide, a Russian hacking outfit made up of ransomware veterans, was responsible for the attack on Colonial Pipeline, which runs from Texas to New Jersey and transports 45 percent of the East Coast’s fuel supply.
The 5,500 pipeline shut down five days ago and services are only gradually being restored now. Colonial, which is based in Atlanta, Georgia, has not yet said whether it has already paid or is negotiating a ransom with the hackers.
The fbi confirms it was dark side. What the hell do they know? Did they know enough to keep it from happening? Then don’t comment on something you know nothing about. The fbi has not been relevant since the Kenyan and old joe screwed them up along with all agencies that we were proud of. Who would want to apply for employment with a group that the citizens have lost respect for. There was a time we were very proud of certain agencies and they hired the cream of the crop. Affirmative action didn’t help by lowering the standards. If a person wants in they should be able to cut the mustard.
Truths know it is just another Democrat play out of their playbook to get prices up on Gasoline and mess with the economy. Wonder what their story will be when the electrical grid is screwed with. Remember Biden gave some of the grid rights back to China. I am sure when it happens they will blame Trump and Russia. China is in on this crap also helping the Democrats.
5pm and the pipeline is operating again. 3 weekdays and folks panicked. Gonna be a very very long summer. Hurricane season next on the panic script after the June Bug invasion.
