This is an interesting start to a story. Though if read-only access then is it really a "hack" that matters?? #AvGeekhttps://twitter.com/krisvancleave/status/929137193574195200 …
Hardly any fact to comment on, too vague and speculative. Unlikely to be anything other than read only access on maybe some add on to interface legacy systems.

Remember when journalists used to fact check, and get confirmation on the details before reporting stuff? Those were the days...

To be clear...DHS confirmed the research and the hack. The agency says the full findings remain classified. But there’s no fact check issue here. The DHS researcher talked about it at a conference. The agency confirmed it happened.

But what does "hack" mean in this context? Read-only or read/write is a major point that needs clarification.
-
Read only ain't much of a hack, but nothing in the story makes it seem like it was anything more than that...
-
It also depends WHAT was compromised. You don’t “hack a plane”, you hack into a system (or more) of the plane ;)

I think we all know - this was written for shock value and click bait. It is not 'factually' inaccurate, the facts as written are "true". But it is factually incomplete, deliberately misleading, and bad "journalism".

Totally disagree. It’s as complete as it could be given the rest of the details are classified.

Agree to disagree. If you had wanted to, you could easily have written that headline to be much clearer, realistic, and less overly-dramatic. You veered to the drama.
