Who are their returning customers? It's strange to refer to literal extortion as a "business model".

- LeftTurnSignal 7y agoIn a previous life, I supported a local govt and I had a judge get a different variant of the cryptowall virus 6 times before I took his "work" PC away. His real work PC was controlled by the state and not me, hence the quotes. That's the type of person who is a repeat offender. He could never tell me how he got the virus, but some recon between email and internet history showed otherwise. He loved clicking on EVERYTHING while "researching" cases. I get the research, but a lot of court cases probably aren't on page 20 of google on some shady half English sites either. Lots of fun in local government. /also I just restored from backups each time but they were ready to pay to have "all their data restored."

I fixed and added what security and regular backups I could and never said a word about it. Several re-installs later he put me in his will, worked out well for everyone.
