Pascha asked:
There was a great concern about whether the financial system computers would be able to handle the transition to the year 2000.
That didn’t happen, but now we have hacking from places like China affecting government computers all over the world.
Could these hackers install malware on the computers of our major banks to cause other harm?

In theory, yes.
I think anything is possible!
Very possible
I’m sure there’s an army of angry geeks working on it as we speak!
Kinda scary, huh?
My most daring expectations.
The story of how really big money caused bush to impact world banking here is possible but it would take many stolen accounts together to panic with the story of how.
