300$ ransom doesn't seem like they're being targetted. The virus just spreads very, very well through corporate (i.e. Windows) intranets, including when connecting through a VPN, using a remote code execution vulnerability (see my other comment here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14324592 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14324592).
Considering it's already hit some tech giants, it was just a matter of time until it spread through their VPNs to their workers, clients and beyond.
This is gonna be fun to watch from the sidelines.
