I remember Wannacry quite vividly, I was at BMW doing logistics and supply chain at the time and I was on the phone with the IT guys about potential vulnerability to our systems, specifically those tied with our shipping partners we used on a daily basis.
Luckily nothing was affected, and we did a network wide update and changed passwords but I still have the picture of the internal letter we got about updates to the Windows 7 machines we were using, total POS OS, and since I always had a Linux box with me I only found out about it on the day of when I got into work. Since some guys at work knew I was a Bitcoiner they were none to pleased to hear it was ransomware demanding payment in BTC.
False equivalence if there ever was one, I suppose. But I was so glad I went back to VW not long after that.
