Kind of cool to think about. Almost sounds like something from a Tom Clancy novel.

oooohhhhhh..... now maybe all that time logged in BF2 killing Chinese will come in handy! Seriously, if wars were won and lost in computer games... well, so long as we don;t fight the North Koreans we'll be alright

Wars would be fought far too often if all that was involved was fighting them online.

It's probably a crazy terrorist cell trying to artificially instigate war between China and America.[/clancy]

Ok. Things need settling. BF2, CS: S, and HL2DM. Who hosts the server?

Well... wouldn't that happen if wars were conducted via computer games?

Wheras this seems to be hacking, etc.

Hmmm... a Global Internet War sounds like a good name for a world-wide computer games tournie, though.

If its Starcraft, we'll dominate the world. kekekekekeke

If its such a problem why not immediately transfer sensitive information into isolated ground based networks? at the very least it would almost completely eradicate the vulnerability time when trying to hack important information.
