I’ve mentioned the Storm botnet worm war thingy a couple of times now (1 2), noting how theoretically powerful it is.
Yesterday, two articles were published and give diametrically opposite outlooks to this menace.
The Guardian ran the alarmist version.
PC World ran a much more rosy version by an academic.
As the saying goes, time will tell which outlook is valid. With any luck Skynet will simply remain in DVD format.
