A simple solution to cyber attacks

-

After hearing about the vicious cyber attack across many countries, which threw the British NHS into disarray I am beginning to think that progress is not progress.

I wanted to cancel a direct debit in Bank of Ireland I was told to go online. After I objected, they agreed to do it this once but said in future I need to go online.

The world wide web is not such a safe place after all and maybe we would be better going back to pen and paper and old-fashioned filing systems. It would mean more jobs too.
