Made it to Pensacola from DC with no problems. First gas station only had premium. Could have went elsewhere but I didn’t want to mess with it. Haven’t gotten around Pensacola much yet but did not see any long lines driving to hotel.

They paid the ransom? Our infrastructure and lack of cyber security in this country is a scary huge target that people have warned about for years.

whoa, just this AM they said they pulled stuff from backup. Guess that was not enough. Seems like a small price to pay TBH

The only thing that could surpass this if if the internet went down for a certain length of time.

What have we learned here?
1.) Panic buying is dumb and more likely to exacerbate whatever is happening.
2.) If private companies want to take on the responsibility of managing something that is vital to our national interest, like a major gas pipeline, they should have to prove that they can keep it going even if they get hacked, ransomed, etc. And the company should have to agree in advance to reimburse us if they fail and create a major disruption. Companies are never going to simply do what's best for the public unless there is some financial incentive to do so.

Feds seize/recover the crypto payment from Colonial to the Russian hackers ring.
a) awesome
b) crypto security - a real thing, or no?

Yeah really curious how the gov't managed to undo the transaction. Did they hack the hacker's wallet? Or some other thing go down?

Buddy that is big into cryptocurrency, the only real way to have seized it was at an exchange. Per him "if they mixed it then used a blind converter to a privacy coin like monero it would be 100% untraceable"

What I just read said they acquired it via a virtual wallet connected with the DarkSide group. And it was worth 4.4MM when they paid it in May, now closer to 2.3MM.
