...or simply fear-mongering. :-)

Personally, I prefer to think it is the former, and not the latter.
I've seen remote-access trojans increasing at an alarming rate.

We've been seeing this for a while - definitely agree with your

Right now they should be raising awareness about root kits
Rather than RAT's. rat with rootkits is a really deadly combo
And nothing can really detect it right now.
