I can promise someone will be hitting us very soon in such a manner. The ONLY thing that stops this currently is strategic timing of the attack. For some reason it is not useful now to our adversary's otherwise it would have already happened. Perhaps they are having too much enjoyment in watching our current political failures.
Whats about to happen will be the new nuclear arms race of our very near new future. Once there is a strike, it will be an act of war. Then the whole internet will explode with counter strikes. Its only takes one good hit to create the tipping point that spirals it all into oblivion. I strongly disagree with the author. I do not believe the code getting out in to the wild was intentional. If it was, it very well may have been the most dangerous leadership decision in warfare for generations to come and to those that may not longer exist.
