Stuxnet targeted the specific PLCs used at Iranian nuclear facilities, and had to be able to function in an airgapped environment. I reckon the logistics were far and away more complicated than finding Windows exploits, especially at that time.

It's probably more impressive than that. Probably targeted a range of potential PLCs.

But what's all this have to do with the ongoing conversations about pwning Windows-based networks inside major consumer utility assets?

Mainly to agree with it. I believe it is still likely true.

Any resemblance to other discussion further up or down is unintentional.
