I bet my ass that the recent re-emergence of the Stuxnet story has got everything to do with liability. Who is going to pay for all the damage done outside of Iran ? Questions are tabled in Dutch parliament...

The focus on a guy with a USB stick and access to shitty SIEMENS/SCADA systems makes a nice james bond story but I don't see the actual relevance.

Can you elaborate, what kind of liability you are referring to and what the current case is in the Netherlands with regards to that?

Here you go! ( Tweedekamer is Dutch parliament )

Looks like NL is going to do a "wir haben ess nicht gewusst" in order to not be liable for collateral damage. "The Americans did it".
