  In a way it reinforces that the status quo has some kinks that could be adjusted every now and then. I'm not saying it's good. It's just a feature of humanity.

  The anti-American terrorists were making money off opium and yes, this was part of the global economy for better or for worse. Just because we ignore illegal things like prostitution, drugs, extortion, and such doesn't mean they do not affect the prices of legal things associated with them. IF Kia pays the ransom, then they are arguably playing a willing part of the economy of Bitcoin.
