No, not political... Russian hackers been engaging in industrial espionage in an effort to steal COVID-19 vaccine secrets.  I'm sure they aren't the only ones.

They said they were only stealing secrets, but an additional concern I have is what if they deleted or even sabotaged information.  I am not saying they did anything more, but   I can virtually guarantee you the hackers have more than has been made known. For one, you’re not going to just stop at vaccine trials, they may have personal information, private correspondences, financials, secret recipes, and compromising information on vaccine-related companies, researchers and administrators.

Taken with the extraordinary compromise of Twitter earlier this week, the combination of state-sponsored hacking and a pandemic (and a recession and an election) make for very dangerous times.
