The end of the Internet (cyber terror)

Hmm...You never know how credible these things are, but I figured someone here might want to know what I read elsewhere just in case they hadn't yet. o_O

o_o...

<enters rant mode>
Since when was "Terror" linked to "Jihad"? ( people dont even know what does this word mean ). In that sense, we should label every murder and every hacker a terrorist o_O. We should focus on crime and poverty IMO.

Let's analyze this...
* Ridiculous news.
Therefore this can't happen.

However... :
* I got a 512 kb ADSL connection at work and will get a second line next month.
That rules my (otherwise) boring life at work...

Unfortunately... :
* I was born luckless.
Therefore, there's a chance this might happen

Prophesy's about the internet are similar to insane people babbling in the past about how the telephone would die out and become extinct. 50 years later its still here, and we still use the telephone line.

Since I've been playing an online game most of the day, I'm pretty sure the Internet didn't go up in flames.
