Unleashing Micro Viruses on Networks (fwd)
Hi, Forwarded message:
Date: Wed, 11 Jun 1997 13:57:00 -0400 From: John Young <jya@pipeline.com> Subject: Unleashing Micro Viruses on Networks
6-11-97, Janes' Defence Weekly:
Thumbnail-sized micro-robots, known as `microbots', will also be unleashed by micro-air vehicles and naval guns. These parasites will creep into electronic equipment, attach themselves, and keep themselves alive by draining generator power.
Once the electronics system's energy is depleted, the fully charged microscopic vermin will search for a new victim.
The main problem will be that they are too small to carry identification equipment and so they infect indiscriminately. As such, they must be deployed far away from allied equipment.
However, packages of microbots can be destroyed remotely as allies prepare to invade enemy territory.
