All are affected. [/quote] something big is up......... banking would be catastrophic....... can't get access to your money..... that's one way to stop people in their tracks....... Ransomware is going on in so many places that don't get published....... at the County level that operates the correctional facilities, jails, courthouses, etc.......... they pay out big time, and keep it on the down low.......... i've seen it first hand......
