Referring to the USA, this might indeed be leaning towards fear mongering .. on the other hand, for any other country .. the "opportunity" to systemically disrupt Apple computers in that country might now be considered a (diplomatic) soft power (of the USA), from this day forward.
Still, this doesn't follow:
> All of sudden hospitals can't run their computers or communications.
If the scenario is an attack by the USA, there are so many better avenues.
If a country wants to defend from this (assuming they are heavily invested in Apple hardware), they just have to block at their firewalls. Done.
