NEW: cyberattack confirmed against a small government contractor that works for the DOE on nuclear weapons issues. The company is called Sol Oriens, and experts tell CNBC they have been hit by REvil, the Russian-linked hacker gang.

and sanction the fuck out of Russia? and while we're at it, hack the fuck out of all their shit? We need to do all we can to relegate them to 3rd world status. Yes, I'd feel awful for the decent citizens of that country, but short of full on war with that asshole putin, I'm not sure what else we can do.

We need to make Russia feel the pain of these attacks like never before. Sanction, hacking them ourselves, all of it.
