Heathrow44: They are still the best country in the world. As for this news, it was the company that paid ramson! Not the government. And I think every country in the world can pay ramson in rare situations but you can never use ramson to leverage the USA. 2 Likes 1 Share |

This is what you get when you computerised everything including infrastructure without having a manual backup up. I hope they learned their lesson in a harsh way |

Tdotbluejays:Yes, no doubt but there ought to have been a manual alternative. This is one of the shortcomings of IT. You can hack information and figures posted on the computer system but if you had the record of same info as back up in a filed booklet, you can never go off track |

Tdotbluejays:What is the relationship between hacker and cryptocurrency? Before cryptocurrency was there no hacking? The drug lord of Mexico was it not the US Dollars that they were using? Was the US Dollars banned then because the drug trafficking? Focus on the hackers and leave cryptocurrency alone. |

SouthSouth1914: How would you know? If they hack sensitive US intel and threaten to expose it, the US government will 100% pay. And no one will hear about it. I'll be surprised if it hasn't happened already. The US government gets hacked all the time. Google "SolarWinds hack"... |
