That was truly horrible, despicable. But I personally relate more to the horror the hacker put himself through: > security experts soon discovered Ransom Man had mistakenly included an entire copy of their home folder > “It was a huge opsec [operational security] fail, because they had a lot of stuff in there — including the user’s private SSH folder, and a lot of known hosts that we could take a very good look at,” What a huge flop! I can recall feelings myself publishing things I shouldn't, but the entire home directory, including private keys and everything? I'd die of shame. Still, really terrible behavior from him, he deserves whatever punishment is coming for him.
