We Should Keep Some of Our Systems off the Internet

   I suppose it would be possible to put a transportation system on the Internet. Have computer-guided cars gliding through the city, coordinated by the Internet.

   Don't do it, though. Consider the hacking. Consider Fancy Bear and whatever other foreign hackers are out there. No, we don't want then to be able to hack into our transportation system, our power grids, our voting systems . . .

   Or our banking. One wonders if there is a way we could still allow banking to be done from home, thru some other means other than the Internet -- some hardwire system, perhaps
