17. Most of us in the USA don't know this but the entire nation of Estonia
Went down last May due to cyber hacking of the internet there.

In Estonia, people do almost everything on the internet. For instance, in Estonia prior to this major hack, there was much less resistance to banking online (I don't nbank online, nor do most of my friends.)

I followed the story for awhile, but quit following it right around the time that reports on what happened to the Estonian economy came out. However, I can't imagine that there was much good news.
