Abstract
ABSTRACT There were numerous occasions when the US military considered conducting cyber attacks but refrained from doing so, but these have been largely overlooked as sources of insight. Six cases that we do know about – mostly from journalistic reporting – reveal much about US strategic thinking, posturing, and assessment of the limits of cyberspace.
