I've just introduced a new form of cryptography at work which I belive is very similar to what you're discussing.
Basically, I write something (that I don't want people to see) on a piece of paper.
I put it in a box.
I close the box.
People can no longer read it.
Where do I get a job with this Quantum company?
So, the internet is this wide connected network of computers. The USAF want to create an offensive botnet to counter cyber threats.
What happens when said bot or rootkit works its way unwittingly onto a UK MoD system. Or a Chinese defense network. Or a Russian network.
Isn't that going to result in a prelude to war? Could that in itself be classed as a declaration of war?
How are they going to stop something like this happening? Restrict it to a geoIP lookup before it attaches to a system?
Skynet was USAF, wasn't it?

Again, I think I have a quantum girlfriend.
