In my opinion, the issue at hand is not whether this is a first-world problem or not; it's not the level of disruption. It's the fact that an organization, no matter the origin, both had the ability and will to adversely affect the normality of so many people's lives. This act of ability and resolve indicates both a lack of corporate and governmental defense against such attacks and a distinct lack of trepidation of reprisal. The latter is more disturbing than the former. The more often these various organizations are able to carry out these attacks without ramifications, the larger, bolder, and more frequent they will become, eventually hitting "things" that matter, things that have life or death ramifications. I realize that this may not be a popular opinion, but at its basic level, these organizations are criminal organizations. They are committing illegal acts. Blaming the victims and indirect victims for not building their houses out of brick instead of straw or because they are too first-world and should find real things to complain about is not germane. Criminals should be prosecuted vigorously by governments with resolve both to punish for past criminals acts as well as to provide a deterrent against future criminal acts. It is distinctly the lack of perceived ramifications for these actions because of lax policy that I find the most disturbing about this. Just one man's opinion.
