"In this video I discuss how MGM and Cesar's Entertainment Resort/Casinos were hacked by a ransomware group and had sensitive customer data and company data exfiltrated from their servers. So far Cesar's Entertainment has paid half of the 30 million dollar to keep files from being released by MGM has paid nothing and the hackers are threatening to ruin MGM's reputation with a data leak."

It's not about morals. Why rob a candy store when a bank is around the corner?

[–] Maeve@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Because a candy store has neither the budget nor capabilities for security that a bank has, including armed security.

So a school is vetter protected than a casino?

Please copy and paste where I said any such thing.

They are not robin hood, they are criminal gangs who will attack anyone and everyone.

You can keep repeating that, but it won't address my point no matter how many times you do since I never suggested they were Robin Hood or anything remotely similar.
