Pedro Carreño: We have to hack DólarTodayJuly 8, 2018
ND / 8 Jul 2018.- The high leader of the PSUV, Pedro Carreño, demanded that the national government take war actions against websites that induce an artificial price at the exchange rate.
This was said in Televen's Sunday program when José Vicente Rangel told him: "I am one of those who believes that capitalism will sooner or later collapse, but as long as that collapse comes, we can not pass on the idea to ordinary citizens. that we must wait for capitalism to collapse so that the internal problems in economic matters can be solved ".
"The President," responded Carreño, "has tried to equip salaries and wages ... but there we have the Bolivar-dollar benchmark. Do you sympathize with reality? Does it follow an economic reason? No. It's a totally induced issue!"
And he continued: "I am going to tell you the following, José Vicente. If this is a war, I think it's time to take war actions. Comrade President Chávez endowed our Armed Forces with excellent electronic warfare units, with state-of-the-art technology. Where are those war units? Why do not we use them to hack all the DolarToday and related pages that generate an increment every day of the dollar bolivar reference pattern and that cost is charged to the prices of the inputs? Why not inoculate a thousand Trojans in such a way as to give them war treatment. "
"Where are those resources?" JVR asked.

Chavismo believes it isn't responsible for the epic economic meltdown that is ravaging Venezuela. In their minds eye, it is all a plot by the CIA, Colombia, the Illuminati and Portuguese pig farmers. And if ONLY El Pueblo could be kept from outside information about what a shambles Venezuela is, there would be prosperity for all!

(16,423 posts)2. As educated people are leaving Venezuela en masse, what are the odds that IT-experts stay behind?
You need more than equipment for electronic warfare. You need hackers. You need people who know IT like the back of their hand.
How many of those are left in Venezuela, when even teachers are leaving?
