Hot Take:

Who knew that unmasking a cyber-villain could feel like an episode of "Scooby-Doo," but with more sanctions and less Scooby Snacks? LockBit's head honcho, Dmitry Yuryevich Khoroshev, might not be saying "I would've gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling kids," but I bet he's thinking it as the world's police tag-team to slap a "Game Over" screen on his ransomware rampage.
