    Yes and they're pointing the finger directly at Russian intelligence.
    Reformat hard drive, restore from backup (separate removable hard drive) anyone who's not backing up their pc's by now have only themselves to blame.

    Experts: Global cyberattack looks more like 'sabotage' than ransomware
    Saturday 1st July, 2017 - Scratch that: Cybersecurity experts believe it was sabotage, not cash, that may have motivated the hackers behind this week's crippling global cyberattack.

    Yep, they have arthritic fingers which can only point at Russian intelligence. Since thanks to our intel, a hack can look like anyone you want it to, it is impossible now to concretely blame anyone. So, of course Russia did it. But Russia is said to be full of patriotic hackers, who do not work for Russia, but do such things on their own. Does not matter. Russia intel still gets blamed.

    I would think that if Russian intel did it, they would have been good enough to limit it to the Ukraine, so as not to piss off the whole western world. LOL

    Isn't it really something that in so far as hacking, hackers still have to invade other systems by having a dupe click on something? Have we not learned by now, never to click on something? Well, we are mighty close still to our chimp cousins and just have trouble controlling our digits.

    When it comes to crimes motif is a big part of finding the guilty party... there's no one with a stronger motif than Russia when it comes to destabilising Ukraine. On top of that Russia also have the largest cyber underground known for their illegal activities. If it walks like a duck... quacks like a duck....

    If you were trying to offend you are going to have to do a lot better than that. Let me give you a hint... my perception of an insult, depends on who insults me... depending on the who, what is said (the insult).... can be rated on a scale from extremely insulting to no impression at all.

    The rating of the insult also depends on the position, motives and views of the who (individual) and my position/motives and views of them.... now please try a bit harder next time

    I am not familiar with the Punch & Judy show.
