The hacker attack on the Colonial Pipeline system had a bomb-like effect in America. President Biden declared a state of emergency, and ordinary Americans, who cannot imagine life without a car, began to buy gasoline in a panic. Traders immediately raised prices: the cost of gas soared to $ 9.99 per gallon.
After a hacker attack on the Colonial Pipeline, American motorists began buying gasoline in a panic. The tag #gasshortage has become the most popular in social networks. In the opinion of the gasoline buyer, the reason for the shortage was not a five-day shutdown of the pipeline, but the unreasonable behavior of car owners buying gasoline. Some drivers are buying up large quantity of gasoline in panic.
The hacker attack affected the gasoline supply of the eastern states. The number of non-working dispensers, depending on the county, ranged from 3% in Kentucky to 73% in Washington. The Colonial Pipeline pumps up to 50 million liters of fuel daily, supplying about 10,000 filling stations.
