Sorry state of affairs

摘要

From River Att Kennette Benedict is right to flag up the dangers of an arms race in cyberspace (30 June, p 26). One point I would add is that the US is once again being blase about collateral damage. The Stuxnet virus apparently "escaped" its original targets because of a programming error. There has been no apology for this, let alone an attempt to compensate non-combatants in neutral countries for the damage caused.
