A simple electric power blackout happens many places in America every day. But one day a hacker was able to bring down the entire power grid in America all at once. The power was restored but it took two weeks to get the whole grid stabilized again though some spots in the country did have power after the first week. Obviously this was a huge inconvenience to all the citizens but when the power came back on it was discovered that there were many problems still remaining. And those problems were found to be much worse than just that simple loss of electric power.
