I just read the thread and I didn’t know this was a thing. It sound serious and I would punish the guilty where they wouldn’t do it again.

Ransomware is a really shitty thing that has been increasingly occurring lately.

Basically, someone stupidly clicks a link or opens an executable file that allows a malicious actor an opening into your system. That individual will then encrypt something important to you (such as your photos) and force you to pay them to get the decryption key by a certain time or they either delete them or post them online for everyone to see. (depending on the type of data it is)

They've been lately targeting municipal governments.

Good luck getting them out of Eastern Europe, Russia, or whatever other foreign soil they are operating from.
