During the late 90's and early 00's I often wondered why with all of the Microsoft hate why someone didn't create a simple virus that did something destructive like just format windows hard drives. There must have been other incentives at play that caused this to never occur. Perhaps in the same logic if you can infect every Tesla it is more valuable to not crash them, but instead scrub the data and sell that back to [insert company] or something.

If there was ever something that would cause a formal programming guild to sprout I would be willing to bet that it would form its roots around security.
