Jon Wellinghoff: It was actually a very shocking result to us that there's very few number of substations you need to take out, in the entire United States, to knock out the entire grid.

Bill Whitaker: Knock out the entire grid?

Jon Wellinghoff: That's correct.

Bill Whitaker: How many would it take to knock out putting the entire country in a blackout?

Jon Wellinghoff: Less than 20.

The report was leaked to the Wall Street Journal. It found the U.S. could suffer a coast-to-coast blackout if saboteurs knocked out just nine substations.

很恐怖。电视上老这么讲。也不知有没有防范措施

就好象那个做个软件追踪 Musk 的私人飞机的小男孩，他用的也是公共的飞行数据，将Musk 吓得跟男孩讨论了。

怎么可能防范？我也想不出来。不过，战争攻击的是军事设施，不会是电力设施，因为它是民需品。

也让数字金融有点vulnerability,否则大家是不是要完全依赖数字了

这个倒不用担心，有个东东叫紧急发电机组。应急电源的前提就是金钱，用钱可以解决的问题，它就不是问题啦。
