About shitcoding

I think people who follow the security news will remember one of the first 
shocking cyber weapons stories from Symantec. It was about a successful hacker
 attack on Iranian nuclear facilities. Let me remind you that then there was 
a release of radiation, and some power plants in the Asian region were also 
damaged, accordings to WikiLeaks.
This string of man-made disasters was launched in 2010 by the Stuxnet virus. 
Known as the world's first cyber weapon. Its target was Siemens industrial 
controllers, which controlled uranium enrichment centrifuges, as well as many
power plants in Asia. But everyone has ignored of the Symantec article. 10 
years have passed since that moment. And over the years, the capabilities and
destructive power of cyber weapons have improved. That, for example, led to a
series of attacks on the hospital system in the United States and a number of
other states. Let me remind you that then the hospitals were left without 
electricity.
And, for example, in Germany, in September 2020, there was another dangerous 
incident. Due to infection with the ransomware of medical equipment, a 
patient died, who could not be provided with timely assistance. You also need
to remember about the explosion of a factory in China and some other events. 
For example, the infection of the firmware of the latest F-35 fighter, or the
tragedy of the BOING 737 MAX, which took many lives due to shitcode.
In April 2017, two employees of the company in the correspondence published by
hackers indicated, the quote: "This plane is designed by clowns, which, in 
turn, are controlled by monkeys." In one of the messages dated 2015, you can
read the following, a quote: "We will strongly oppose this [regulator], and 
we will most likely need support at the highest levels when the time comes 
for a final agreement." In the text published by the hackers, it was about 
the level of on-board systems, replaced from hardware to software. The fact 
is that BOING decided to implement IT standards in its new aircraft in order
to save money. As a result, shitcoding cost 336 human lives over the course 
of a year. Not to mention the mass of related incidents.
But the IT idiots' attempt to infiltrate the industry did not end there. 
So, in Russia, a well-known Austrian company tried to implement an office 
ERP system in the core of a nuclear reactor control! As a result, one of 
the leading project engineers begin the scandal. He reached the Russian 
government, but still averted the catastrophe.
That is why today it is useless to repeat the thought of how this situation
was provoked by the inadequate introduction of household standards in 
industrial production. Moreover, over these 10 years the situation has only
worsened. By virtue of the so-called smartization. This is when you spend a
lot of time on what you could do in hardware mode in 2-3 minutes.
Remember the data breach of all tax residents in Bulgaria? This is the best
indicator of the inferiority of the idea of a smart country and the smart 
society. Nevertheless, data leaks and sales to manipulate public opinion 
continue. And despite the fact that the world's leading economies seem to have
taken a course towards eliminating IT cartels as a threat to technological
and socio-political development. The latter are not going to go back into the
past without a fight. And they continue to expand to third countries.
Much more suffers is democratic political activists who have entrusted self
data corporations such as FaceBook with their personal data in dictatorial
countries. This means shitcode is even more expensive. He is already worth
thousands of lives arrested and broken in prisons. The idea of modern 
shitcode is the idea of irresponsible people who care only about profit. 
They are not responsible for the consequences of their actions. Remember this
every time you go to the social network! They profits come from other people's
crippled destinies and lives...
