Isn't most of "surprising new vulnerabilities" NOBUS? (NObody BUt US)
I didn't believe for a second that the MS Exchange vulnerability was not known & abused since forever. Now the Chinese have created what Zynga, Facebook, Pinterest, and the rest of the silicon valley failed to succeed. Get everyone meth-ed on an app. 150m Americans is nearly half the population. If you leave out the under 4 and the over 70, that's the majority of active population, having a homing beacon in their pocket reporting to China.
