If I got hacked, they seemed to come in, smash up the place, and leave
without getting anything useful.  If 'they' had truly malicious intent, I
would expect to be hacked an have no idea, while 'they' calmly sniffed my
passwords, credit card accounts, etc. I'm guessing a power issue as well.
 There has been construction in my neighborhood, and perhaps a pole was
bumped by a piece of equipment, etc.
