But the piece overall sparks a really important conversation about the US role in shaping international norms around cyber conflict and how policymakers have not made themselves publicly accountable for the protocols that determine when we go to cyberwar. — PolitiTweet.org

So for people to be going around saying, "yeah, maybe the SolarWinds thing really could be considered an act of war," is extremely troublesome for the wing of the Pentagon that understands escalation here is not to our benefit. — PolitiTweet.org

Second, and related, is that many experts, many even former military, explain that the country is not ready for an all-out conflict in cyberspace. https://t.co/hYigmyebZa https://t.co/VyHjxEhCkx — PolitiTweet.org

Right now the informal consensus is, "if it didn't cause physical harm similar to, say, a bomb going off, then it isn't an act of war." Obviously lots of gray area in what you can define as harm. But it gets even messier when you expand that to include *potential* for harm. — PolitiTweet.org

TL;DR Vindman argues that perhaps the mere capability to cause damage with a given cyber intrusion might be enough to warrant the "act of war" label. IMO this opens up a big can of worms. https://t.co/obi3gilfaa — PolitiTweet.org

Speaking of @lawfareblog, this is a really deep and nuanced piece (from a familiar name) about whether the SolarWinds thing can be described as an act of war. Highly recommended, though I think I disagree in small parts. https://t.co/leSJJL9mB1 — PolitiTweet.org
