Businesses in the UK's food supply chain have been impacted by the cyber-attack which hit supermarket fridges and freezers across Europe on Monday.

The National Cyber Security Centre says it is aware of "a couple of instances where vulnerable technology had been exploited in the UK."

On Monday, supermarkets in countries including Ireland, Sweden, Estonia, and Belgium reported fridges and freezers being hiked in temperature.

These companies have themselves to blame. Who puts their critical infrastructure directly on the Internet?

If people want to mobilize as they express amid the confusion and madness that is ruling now they need to get rid of most of these Internet or wifi gadgets soon already ye can here the cry of that would be too costly and surrender to the beast system because remember " no one will be able to buy or sell lest they have the mark o beast on them and belong to a digitly controlled matrix no u won't be able to buy new fridges nor nothing god help us all and where its all going take the time to reflect on revelation and start letting go of this world turning to christ witb all your mind heart body and soul for strength and courage and the wisdom of what you will inevitably face co, yes its going to get a helleva lot worse and worser

Isn't it easier to have the fridges offline and just manually set the temperature?

Freezers should be pre set and then put in the store for them to be simply plugged in. They worked fine decades ago without all the crap they are trying to add now
