Hot Take:

Looks like CDK Global decided to throw it back to the '80s with a surprise 'analog-only' day (or two) for car dealerships. Who knew a cyberattack could turn car sales into a retro experience? Nothing like the smell of fresh carbon paper and the clack of typewriters to make you appreciate the good old days… and robust cybersecurity.
