I think the people behind that sort of attack are fucking scum, just absolutely the worst type of human beings alive. (would you believe the first time I typed the word in the reply to you I too typo'd it as random... even though it was to correct you on it lol, I don't know how peoples brains are wired when it comes to typing, I almost always find myself typo'ing out Marion.... instead of Mario too online, no clue why, just crossed wires in the grey matter haha.) |
Have fun with that! If you need to bruteforce the encryption, that sounds like... well, mostly boring, must also quite desperate. Hopefully there's some weaknesses in the ransomware software. And I agree, the people doing ransomware are total scum. It's probably one of the easiest (illegal) ways to make money on the internet though. No need to scam anyone into giving their credentials or anything. All you have to do is get the program on the victim's computer and you're basically done.
Yeah, some words are really easy to typo... I almost typoed ransomware again. For some reason, I make a lot of typos in English even though I know how words are supposed to be spelled. I don't do the same with my native language (Finnish), but typing English seems to be harder for some reason. I can type and I know the language, but I still make the mistakes. It probably has something to do with the patterns the words in different languages use. For example, English has some weird character patterns Finnish doesn't almost ever have. Or, from your point of view, Finnish might have some really weird patterns compared to English.
