DOJ Says It’s Elevating Priority Of Ransomware Cases
Trump: “I just spoke to Putin, and he said it wasn’t Russia. I don’t see any reason why it would be. He was very strong and powerful in his denial.”
😭
Solar Winds and Twitter where hacked under Trump in 2020. It’s probably because the US government would rather spend $800 billion on its military annually. And the corporations only care about increasing shareholder value and aligning politicians pockets via lobbying. Clearly, foreign hackers have figured out that there are glaring holes in US cyber security. But hey, keep paying those CEO’s and stock buybacks. It’s cheaper to pay ransom via Bitcoin or Monero then it is to update your cyber security systems.
@Jaques Studly I think you really live in Mars!! Get lost bozo!!
@Jaques Studly Lol. When manufacturers were setting up orders to sell worldwise last summer, he ordered at taxpayers expense just enough for him and his close associates.
@JennE don’t bother arguing with him.. it’s a troll account..just report him.

The U.S. federal government needs to 1) identify which foreign government or governments are funding hackers for proxy terrorist/criminal attacks attacks against U.S. businesses and U.S. cities and then 2) hurt that country/those countries so badly no other country ever dares do this against the U.S.
I’m thinking targeted EMP strikes directed at the country’s capitol city and every government center and military installation in the country. Destroy their government centers and military installations/equipment by taking out local power grids and everything with a computer chip in the target areas. Reduce them down to spear chucking and rock throwing level. Maybe neighboring countries will come in and “help” the disabled country with a new government under occupation.
Tell treasonous Biden to stop sleeping with Russia, Ukraine and China!
US/Israel Stuxnet.
US and Israel are terrorists by their own definition.
Still not focused on the issue that could help alot of America data privacy but go ahead keep letting corporations and politicians hire people who do data mining and we will just keep seeing election interference cyber security attacks and further increases in extremism
US and Israel are terrorists by their own definition. “Stuxnet”
So what ??? DOJ doesn’t prevent anything. It merely prosecutes people after crimes have already taken place.
All we really need to do is disconnect from the internet.
Stop blaming Russia for cyber attacks when it is pimply vegetarian US college kids.
Do you ever get up in the morning and wash yourself in oil? then go boil some eggs in oil? then drink a cup of oil?
Cyber attacks are the new warfare so will US weapons, vehicles and battleships now be sold as scrap metal?
Humans drink water not oil, humans eat meat and veggies not gun turrets and bullets.
Poor infrastructure is the doing of incompetence not having a good defense is just stupidity. Welcome to America!

Believe in Jesus Christ and you will be saved, John 3:16, KJV……
Go after the annoying car warranty people
“”Hackers” blame everything on them. another way to make more money! hahaha
PUTIN AND TRUMP ARE PREPARING TO DO THE BIGGEST ATTACK THAT USA NEVER HAD IN THEIR WORSE NIGHTMARE!! CYBER ATTACKS ON THE MOST VULNERABLE ENTITIES AND THEN WILL SEND ALL HIS SUPPORTERS AND MILITIAS TO ASSASSINATE ALL HIS OPPONENTS !! JUST THANK THE GOP CONGRESS FOR ALLUDING THIS TO HAPPEN!!..
Dems SIT on the couch.
Sad.
The Russians are having a field day with this weak Biden administration. Miss Trump yet?
No, Trump literally sided with Russia and kissed their butt.
Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.
Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long; they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others.
“But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. The greatest among you will be your servant. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted”.
Matt 23 NIV
YOU SHALL NOT MAKE FOR YOURSELF AN IMAGE in the form of anything, in Heaven above or in the Earth beneath, or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents up to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.
If my people who are called by my name, humble themselves and pray, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, I will hear from Heaven, will forgive their sins, and will heal their land.
AND WHEN YOU PRAY, DO NOT BE LIKE THE HYPOCRITES, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. BUT WHEN YOU PRAY GO INTO YOUR ROOM, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
This, then, is how you should pray:
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.
For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.

These are the teachings,
The Righteousness of our Lord Jesus Christ our God.
REPENT, and start doing what is right.
If you abide my teachings, you are really my disciples; then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in Truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.
GOD IS SPIRIT so his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in Truth.
In the New Heaven and New Earth,
only Righteousness dwells.
May the Spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ our God be with you all.
I’ve come to the conclusion that God is not a Being but an Action.
Not a spirit, an idea, or an abstract concept…god is human action in the form of labor.
This is because Labor is the Father and the Earth its Mother. A particular kind of labor is God manifesting itself through human labor in general.
From the interaction of the two nothing ever remains the same or is unmoving, everything changes.
This would account for the diversity of earth at a time when labor was only hunting, fishing and farming and the lack of diversity on earth in our time when labor does not get what it produces but gets a certain amount in reshaped form of satin cloths, a gold watch, a small mansion, two SUVs. Twelves hours work brings less of the material labor produces to the actors doing the work and more to the actors that do not work covers the same injustices passed down through the ages.

The blue branch microregionally spoil because reward conclusively crawl sans a unable santa. insidious, romantic illegal
The infrastructure is weak n old.
trump done expose these wannabes!!
This is what happened in Texas during the freeze this year…media should play a part in outing the criminals by reporting the cases. **also the hack in Texas this last freeze in Feb was not the first hack.
DOJ | FBI has known for a while.
In Plano, their local warning system was hacked a couple years ago, making the sirens continue to go off.
Fact is, we have four branches of Military, who have thousands of computer specialists, who could counter these hacks and we need to utilize them in civilian communities.
Ethereum’s price has been moving along a crucial path as it chooses its way forward and there were two scenarios in play – One which could push the asset towards consolidation and the other which could fuel a strong surge in the crypt0’s price. ETH’s daily chart pictured the alt’s price gliding under the immediate resistance of $3,013. As ETH last exchanged hands at $2,820, the crypto-asset seemed to be northbound but if ETH can successfully breach $2,836, it would set a new higher high, forming an ascending channel. However, if it fails to hit the resistance level, it may move sideways. Ethereum’s market was in a conundrum and at the moment, as the price could either surge or consolidate. For the benefit of a crypto trader, buying these digital coins at a lower price and trading for profit is a welcome addition to any trader but I’d strongly advise any newbie in trading to seek help from not just any trader but an established trading expert, I underwent series of trading loses I’d best not talk about before I was introduced to trading analyst Sir Burwell Coleman, my contact with him has been the Hallmark of this year for me, under his careful guide and his signal service I’ve been able to recover and even grow my trading portfolio. His also a trade coach, author and also a trade s!gnal provider that loves to assist both newbies/experienced traders in navigating the crypto sphere because of risk management and stop loss in his trade signals are the most effective I have come across. Every intending trader out there should get a Burwell Coleman, he can be reached on his måīl {burwellcolemanfinance@gmailcom} or WhãtšÅpp (+44 7723 022159) and wish you all the bes
I really need good signals, I am a newbie. I have lost a lot so I will contact Mr Burwell Coleman immediately.
@Michele Eifù What impresses me most about Burwell Coleman is how well he explains basic concept of winning before actually letting you use his trade signals. This goes a long way to ensure winning trades
Every break I have at work is spent just looking at my portfolio and day trading, Burwell Coleman is the man!
I had to research about him when I heard it from a colleague at my place of work. Great platform and good with Burwell. I had just had my 7day trade profits withdrawn?
Gaining bitcoin excites me more than my wife. LOL, happy to see this info
American taxpayers paid to build the world wide web but they don’t get any financial benefits.
Perhaps if they elevated trump crimes, we wouldn’t have to worry about Russia.
Of course it’s terrorism, they need to do something about these attacks, the whole Country could be paralyzed. We can have the best Military in the World, but be taken down with a Keyboard, this is very serious!
It’s people here doing it!
