Hot Take:
Looks like the U.S. State Department is channeling its inner 'Wanted' poster vibes by slapping a juicy $10 million bounty on info about the ALPHV/BlackCat cybercrime syndicate. With a reward this high, it's like a real-life game of "Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?" but with less geography and more cyber sleuthing. And, in a plot twist straight out of a telenovela, the gang's own affiliates are ratting them out after a classic 'take the money and run' move. Drama, deception, and data breaches – oh my!
