“Chaos and Concern in Sin City,” read this morning’s headline on a video report from ABC News about “the massive cyberattack in Las Vegas crippling several hotels and casinos, and putting a damper on getaways for thousands of tourists there.”

Other gaming resorts also having issues. Caesar’s entertainment says they too were a victim of a cyberattack, but their online operations were not impacted.
