Hot Take:

When the cyber-baddies use "remote access" as an excuse to literally take it remotely, you know it's game on in the cyber-wild-west. TeamViewer's got the digital equivalent of a "We're Closed" sign on their corporate network, thanks to some Russian-sponsored virtual cowboys. They're calling it 'contained,' but in the world of espionage, that's like saying you've only got a small hole in your pocket...while your coins are making a run for it.
