It might be worth considering how criminally underfunded cybersecurity has been in the first place.
What we’re seeing is not exactly “the best humanity can do” against some next-level alien force beyond our abilities.
We’re seeing walls that were built with the criteria of “1) technically exists, 2) stops the single most obvious attack vector (optional)”… being attacked by a multi-million-dollar token wallet piloted by people who have a (literally) vested interest in putting on a show, and don’t have to hack any one thing in particular — just something.
The landscape is certainly changing, I’m not gonna deny that. But the scariest stories out there are just criti-hype to pump the IPOs.
