I'm certain that Gartner was wrong about this prediction¹. Good news!

"... Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) attacks resulting in fatal casualties will reach over $50 billion by 2023."

"Attacks" is the key word here. Anyone aware of fatalities from Cyber-Physical attacks?

Tesla.

Once I was looking for the therac25 name and googled "programming error human fatality." See how many hits you get.

Look at hospitals and cities hit by ransomware. Consider how many deaths caused by them.

Then look at Internet blackouts to hide political violence in developing countries.

I would frankly consider many of the laws not demanding accountability from tech firms an attack.
