I'm exactly advocating for the federal government to do its job and protect its citizens and their property from foreign enemies.

It's not my job to protect my house from a foreign military that might want to come into it and steal things from me.

Nor should I install radar systems to alert me to enemy aircraft. That's why the USA spends the better part of a trillion dollars on the military.

That's my government's job and they should do that job. That's what I'm saying.

If a foreign government sent boats full of marauders to our shores to steal from people's homes and stores, you think the government would look the other way?

I don't. I think they'd blow the boats up and kill the marauders.

So you're not talking about digital security at all?
Actually, I expected such a response, as I already stated, the reality is: I'm not interested in talking to you at all.
Forgive me for thinking you had a coherent opinion on the topic at hand.
