Not. Security, control and who gets into what is a major military concern, and most if not all of the really important stuff is not accessible from the outside, let alone a kid with a C-64. There's lots of publicity about breakins to systems which are less than essential, many of which are so poorly administered that the manufacturer's default superuser access codes were never changed. It's a matter of priorities. And pretending vulnerability is a valid military tactic.
