Could be with current events they are finally moving beyond pretend stages. Reminds me of a mom during the late ‘70s. She and the other moms developed a secret code. Openly discussing little league baseball stats over the telephone was becoming too risky. During those years, as now, bombing out was considered to be a world threat. The secret service, the FBI, federal marshals, etc raided her home to prevent it. After a period of time someone finally learned her little leaguer son’s team had been losing lately.
I don’t know if this is a true story or an urban legend, but back in the 70’s the pentagon asked a group of young hackers to test their new security system for the nuclear arsenal. They gave the kids a room and told them that they will supply them with anything they needed. After some time one of the hackers came out to ask for more paper. As the paper was being delivered the officer in charged asked how hard it was going to which the young hacker replied that they cracked the security in a few minutes and had spent the rest of the time watching the inventory list print out.

It looks like the Pentagon is ‘hacking’ back.

Apparently this man really has no idea how good children are with tech. It’s a normal part of life for kids these days—they’ve never been without it.

I would have expected SWAT teams, but not tanks.

Don’t forget to say “Tank you” when it’s all over!

The good news: he didn’t start a war
The bad news: he just ordered those surplus at $5,000,000 per tank (on your credit card).

They just send black limousines to hire the kid for the Red Team.
