"The United States and Israel jointly developed a sophisticated computer virus nicknamed Flame that collected intelligence in preparation for cyber-sabotage aimed at slowing Iran’s ability to develop a nuclear weapon, according to Western officials with knowledge of the effort." Imagine if this story is about a computer virus developed by Russia and Iran against the US and Israel. Can you imagine the international uproar? I can see the UN Security Council meeting in an emergency session and I can see computer scientists from around the world issuing statements of condemnation and talking about the breach of scientific ethics and such.
