Caveat Emptor.
Tiernan told the paper the move was a way of being “responsible to our customers and acting with the market,” claiming: “Very often in the past, these sort of corrections or evolutions to policy language happen post-event… after everything has gone wrong.”
With regard to cyber operations and/or network wars/remote virtually anonymous and practical autonomous ethereal and hearts and minds wars, that statement from Tiernan is Lloyd’s declaring such insurance against those instances of novel postmodern day 0day attack which can easily have everything going wrong and badly and quicker than was ever before even imagined possible, are not viable and thus be a fraudulent and enterprising criminal product if ever on offer.
Their refusal to entertain that, even with willing customer payment of sky high premiums on untenable policies, is perfectly understandable as such would render the entire Lloyd’s leadership battle group a Titanic body for the easiest of catastrophic sinkings.

Hmmm?
US wants to give global chipmakers a 25% tax credit on new fabs
Plus $39 billion in subsidies for ‘domestic’ effort that will welcome foreign semiconductor players
Is that sort of incentive also what is commonly known as a bung or a bribe? Are those not usually touted as being illegal/unlawful with one liable to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and incarcerated in a penal institution?

Level playing fields? Oh please, you can’t expect to win win for crooks on those fair terms and conditioned grounds, can you.

Brian, Hi,
Who be the greater fool if anyone thinks politicians reaping the ready benefits allied to the expenses and rewarding salaries of elected by an easily fooled and media led public financed office, care a jot about what others think of their thinking?
They’re having far too much fun enjoying themselves laughing at everyone as they make their way to the bank to mull over what to do with their stash.
