It was very confusing for me! > Having a Hot Chips article with a cheekier title is not something we normally do, but we saw this slide. In terms of world economies, cybercrime now ranks between Germany and China in GDP according to Microsoft’s chart at just over $9T in 2024, and expected to be over $10T in 2025.
