Nah. The "end" of the chain is espionage, industrial or otherwise.
- zdragnar 4y agoThat sort of thing tends to involve much more individually targeted attacks- emails, fake ads on Facebook targeted to a specific email address, etc. Throwing up a fake weight loss website to infect uncle bob's boob viewing machine isn't going to get very far in the espionage game.
