Cyber-Physical, GPS Disruption Likely to Shape Future Indo-Pak Hostility

Cyber-Physical, GPS Disruption Likely to Shape Future Indo-Pak Hostility

Imagine a big computer game where players fight each other.

Instead of using real tanks and planes, they might now use special computer codes to mess with important things in the real world.

Think of it like unplugging the internet or changing the GPS signal so that planes don't know where to go.

Experts say that for countries like India and Pakistan, fighting with these computer tricks, especially by messing with GPS signals that help with things like electricity and phones, is more likely than a big traditional war.

This is because it's cheaper and harder to trace.

They warn that even small tricks with GPS can cause big problems, like power outages.

To stay safe, countries need to build better computer defenses and practice dealing with these invisible attacks.
