Hot Take:

Looks like the cybercrime version of "Where's Waldo?" just leveled up! The unmasking of LockBit's alleged kingpin, Dmitry Khoroshev, could be the start of a new cyberpunk thriller – 'The Hunt for LockBitSupp'. Who knew that a depixelating GIF could be the modern-day equivalent of pulling the mask off the villain? Scooby-Doo would be proud. But seriously, if you're offering a $10 million bounty for your identity, maybe don't be surprised when someone actually comes for it. Just sayin'.
