Big net attack tipped in next 10 years - Brian Kladko, the Age
Don't say we didn't warn you: At some point in the next decade, there will be a "devastating attack" on the internet or power grid.

Other predictions that drew the most agreement: We'll be watched more closely by government and businesses through computing devices embedded in clothes, appliances, cars and phones.
