What, if any, years since 2000 have not had a major cybersecurity incident?

@JimAusman https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/07/us/planada-central-valley-farmworkers-floods.html

Is “barely mentioned” the same as covered?

Central Valley Farmworkers Struggle to Recover After Floods
Weeks after devastating storms, residents of Planada in Merced County are only beginning to rebuild.

Does this not

count? Clearly major enough to be covered by the NYT
It says 'possible' though

Possible Cyberattack Disrupts The Philadelphia Inquirer
The Inquirer, citing “anomalous activity” on its computer systems, said it was unable to print its regular Sunday edition and told staff members not to work in the newsroom at least through Tuesday.

This is certainly major enough to get reported, though it's maybe a bit technical for the popular press. tl;dr Intel BootGuard private keys got leaked, - not clear yet what the scope of the problem is yet. Might just be MSI.
