npub17lgy0rj5a2nwpnyc4hup6ufpfz7wz6dzcgd3crm6fm2yd34dcz0qlk9uux (npub17lg…9uux) If the losses are $100m a week, a one-time payment of $22m seems like a good deal.
Now imagine if ransom payments were illegal. Their only choice would be either to break the law or to keep losing $100m a week.
(Also, one ransmware group less is actually good news. It was a very prolific one.)
