Hot Take:

While most of us are struggling to sell our old junk on eBay, one hacker named IntelBroker is trying to sell access to General Electric's development environment on a hacking forum. Now there's a side hustle! Unfortunately for him, there aren't many serious buyers in the market for an alleged data breach. But, don't worry, he's not discouraged. Now, he's sweetening the deal by including some allegedly stolen data. Talk about a BOGO! GE, on the other hand, is not amused and is investigating this alleged data leak.
