Ransomware attacks bother me enough that sometimes I fantasize that this sort of thing was the standard response. Sure go ahead and hit a US company with a ransomware attack. But be aware that there is a good chance it puts you in the crosshairs of a nsa battalion whose whole mission is to ruin your day. Perhaps not the smartest team but they are motivated, have incredible resources and the ability to operate while legally protected by the us government.
Then I sober up and realize why this is a terrible idea.
