RE: People on Google Security blog don't understand cyber terrorism

[Dan Lynch <DLynch () placer ca gov>]

"Terrorism", Andrew? 

Terrorism is a political statement made by murdering your neighbors with a bomb. You may not agree with full disclosure 
practices, but to attach a term like terrorism to it is melodramatic hyperbole. It detracts from your credibility and 
only serves to distract from any point you wish to make.

Let's reserve the emotionally loaded terms for real tragedies, and restore some moderation to the discussion.
