  1. It’s a minor point, but the way you tell it is not the correct sequence of events: Stuxnet was first detected on PLCs in Iranian nuclear centrifuges. There’s no real doubt that it was created by USA and Israel in collaboration, trying to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons.  After it was found and described, it was subsequently found on innumerable networks globally, but inert, and Siemens, whose PLCs had been specifically targeted, began helping companies remove Stuxnet — without incidents, but slowly and costly, because Stuxnet immediately spread to all connected computers on a network to remain dormant once it was introduced. You described it as if the world was fighting Stuxnet before anyone knew what it was. We knew… But your main point, that the code is everyones plaything now, is well taken, and the rest is good research well presented…
