Air Force Aims for 'Full Control' of 'Any and All' Computers

My first reaction was to doubt that this would be possible, but my second was concern that it should be attempted at all.Air Force Aims for 'Full Control' of 'Any and All' Computers | Danger Room from Wired.com:
"The government is growing increasingly interested in waging war online. The Air Force recently put together a 'Cyberspace Command,' with a charter to rule networks the way its fighter jets rule the skies. The Department of Homeland Security, Darpa, and other agencies are teaming up for a five-year, $30 billion 'national cybersecurity iniative.' That includes an electronic test range, where federally-funded hackers can test out the latest electronic attacks. 'You used to need an army to wage a war,' a recent Air Force commercial notes. 'Now, all you need is an Internet connection.'"
It might appear at first sight that cyber war would be more merciful, but let's recall that the point of trying this kind of thing is to be able to shut down things like power, water, transport: thus it is a definite turn away from respecting non-combatants and embedding total warfare in strategy.

What should our response be as Christians? Well for non-pacifists the erosion of just war principles is surely a matter for concern. For pacifists and perhaps for just-war-proponents, the issue may be how resistance looks in such circumstances ... still thinking about that; any thoughts or leads gratefully received.
