Allegedly BlackMatter is not. > It would not extort healthcare, critical infrastructure, oil and gas, defense, non-profit, and government organizations

  That's good. I wonder if they'd extort the company that manages the building I live in. If they did the most likely negative outcomes are that I'll receive worse service and pay more for my service charge. That's not too bad for me, but I have vulnerable neighbours for whom that may be a significant problem. There is so much collateral damaged created by this sort of attack against any company of sufficient size. It's easy to wave your hand and say they're a rich company they can afford it, but no company exists in isolation, they're all part of economies, and ultimately it's real people somewhere who take the damage.

    Good luck getting much sympathy. There is still some asshole making off like a bandit even when the lowly employees get hurt at the same company.
