1. Well there is the matter of the missing FIVE MILLION DOLLARS

[fescuerescue]

4. That $5 million will be the trackable lump moving through the system

That gets these folks caught.

I helped a public school system a few years ago post ransom ware attack. They paid the ransom. (their cyber insurance did).

I think it was about $10,000. So the Feds didn't really care much.

But $5m? And it impacted national security?

These guys are going to get a midnight visit from Seal Team 6.

6. Not really, they're most likely in Russia

[fescuerescue]

7. Which means that the resources of the CIA and NSA are now available.

I would be very surprised if thee NSA doesn't already know exactly who it is.

The hard part is taking action without exposing methods.

This isn't about the money any more. Ransomware attacks occur every day. To date it's not been worthwhile to go after them.

But when you start shutting down regions of the US. That's different.

2. The feds will go after the hackers...

9. The images of people in gas lines waving desperately from the roofs of their cars,

begging their government to care and help, surely must be burned into the psyche of America.

Oh, the humanity!
