ITT we talk about the current ongoing cyber war being waged throughout world networks and social media. We all know what the retards over at reddit, hacker news, tumblr, 9gag, etc, are in denial about: a good chunk of online traffic is just bots and paid shills. Organizations like the NSA, KGB, MI5, ISIS, Israel, and private companies like Microsoft, Apple, Oil companies, AMD, NVIDIA, etc, are all paying people to post on social media.

All of these organizations are competing in an unorganized fashion to control the public narrative.

World governments are all hacking each other and their citizens. Bugs are left open because of a global policy of "spy first, disclose the bug later", which leaves everyone vulnerable to everyone else, including our politicians. If the NSA had taken a more proactive stance on security they could have let the public know about the exploits used to obtain the Clintons data and prevented those exploits from being used.

Right now, your personal data is being collected by Microsoft, Google, and the NSA, stored on servers that may or may not be secure, backed up over and over again, and inevitably stolen from insecure servers and sold on the dark web. Stupid shit you did on facebook (or myspace) when you were younger is probably sitting on thousands of servers right now, continually being hacked.

How much longer can they keep the war secret?

Is this the beginning of WW3? Or the first of some new type of global warfare? Perhaps, World Cyber War 0.1 (WCW0.1)?
