Hackers behind Ukraine power cuts, says US report - Goldengirl - 02-28-2016

"December 2015 incident is thought to be the first known successful hack aimed at utilities."

This seems like it should be important enough to have been caught by the bot. At the very least, seems like almost no one is reporting on it. Hmmmm...Shout out to Twice, Nanny, DLP, Sherriann, Shadewolf put your interpreting hats on......

"virus, sand, portal, computer, remove, fish, quest," are all dreambot words in this recent run. Maybe another run is better, or works with this, not sure. Found this at a glance.
