ermmm he US have confirmed it lost the drone while snooping around and generally not respecting borders/airspace etc etc

Not saying it didn't go down in Iran, ffs. I'm saying Iran didn't get it whole, like they are claiming.

And it supposed when horky and veered off-course while on a mission in Afghanistan, where it's been operating for years.

No. Stuxnet was built to fuck with one thing: Iranian-spec Siemens centrifuges. If it weren't the places where it showed up outside of Iran would've been fucked up, too.

It is just like every other means of causing damage- a matter of will power.

Those are unclassified networks, attached to the internet. You're comparing apples and armchairs.

China's been trying to hack into DoD on a daily basis.

no shit, dumbie. but it's the technology and its potential that is frightening. infecting low level UNIX machines that are built without any operating system and are only used as automation. the fact that hacking/viruses can infect technology at that root level means that now, theoretically at least, everything from power-plants to dams to water cleaning facilities can be industrially sabotaged.

also this isn't my opinion, this is coming from a tech essay that i read somewhere in a proper academic journal. if i remember it i'll be sure to dig it up. but i am not conjecturing or speculating here (i don't know anything about computer security so why would i?)

Fuck Iran

Fuck Obama

That thing needs to get back in US hands before they can get too much valuable information.

Iran should get their ass kicked for stealing US military property.

No you shut up

The U.S. has handed Iran vital military information and technology on a silver platter. Common sense dictates you do whatever you can to get that kind of thing away from your enemy that could use it later against you or develop something better from your work.

I wouldn't worry too much. Iran sucks at reverse engineering and China steals everyone elses tech anyway. Besides, there was that guy years ago handing over documents on the B-2, and nothing has really emerged of similar capability to it.

Also Shifty do please stfu!

Yeah great idea! Lets invade them! Retard.

I hope Iran get's something from it, then gives it to the world media.

Fucking yank government making out they are friends of the free world (not that the UK gov is any better).

If you were that serious about reverse engineering it, I would imagine you would keep it secret / hidden, develop something awesome from it then claim you came up with it all by yourself?

He's got to be trolling.

That's like if a thief broke into your house, stole all of your shit, then had the balls to come back the next day asking for his mobile phone back because he left it there.

That's basically what the US have been doing. And you think Iran should be punished for it? Hell, you're more retarded than i thought.

The US wants back all the missiles and bombs that have been "stolen" over the years by various middle eastern countries.

To be fair, we've never done anything to Iran, they've held us up as the Great Satan since the Ayatollah's took power in the 70s and used us as their own personal bogeymen. Remember, they did take dozens of Americans hostage at one point...
