I remember there was a water treatment plant or something similar that got hacked. The hackers started messing with the levels of the chemical mixtures to poison an entire city. The only reason it didn't end in catastrophe is because there was somebody watching that specific screen at the exact moment it happened. Seeing this made that scenario more terrifying.

I actually cannot comprehend how people can think like this

Saw a 4chan post claiming to be about making crystals that was actually designed to mislead people into making chlorine gas and poisoning themselves - how the fuck can anyone be that broken that they'd find that funny

Humans are really really good at separating themselves from their own violent actions. For example, many humans drive a car and eat meat.

That's not separation, but a different ethical concept or a lack of thought about one.

That's why you need several security layers and failure protection systems.
