If something similar had been caused by an OSS component, we would see congress discussing a ban on open software in critical infrastructure already.

No we won’t. I refer to HeartBleed, Log4J, and Eternal Blue, and Solar winds. None of those affected applications have been banned and never will. Congress bans are based on political aspects not technical ones.

Huawei ban is because of the ties to China, kaspersky was banned because of Russian ties.

I refer to HeartBleed, Log4J, and Eternal Blue, and Solar winds.

None of those took down half of world. “something similar” in context of cyberstrike means something like cyberstrike.

Congress bans are based on political aspects not technical ones.

You realize that any policy is political by its nature? Including any bans?

Do you remember Wanacry?

uis OP ,

And? We are not talking about malware here.

Although I guess congress probably did ban Wannacry.

The goal of Congress in a capitalist society is to make as much money for its shareholders themselves as possible.
