And yeah, shortly after this hack, Denmark changed the law. They made sex with animals illegal. And I can't tell if this hack had anything to do with the laws changing, but the timing is very coincidental.

Let's take a quick ad break, but stay with us because when we come back, we're going off the trail. This episode is sponsored by Arctic Wolf. Arctic Wolf, an industry leader in managed security operations, surveyed a thousand security and IT professionals across the globe to better understand them. What are their top priorities, current challenges and future concerns?

This survey revealed some startling findings, and you can discover them all in the State of Cybersecurity 2024 Trends Report. Learn why the number of insider threats spikes severely, what lessons can be learned from the year over year change, and how many organizations disclose a breach. and what cyber attacks struck 70% of organizations.

He kind of took over that group. But do you realize there's a whole infrastructure to these hacker groups? There's data stores to keep records of the stuff you collected or the passwords you've cracked. There's a tool shop to quickly grab hacking tools and how to use them. But to build on that infrastructure, they decided they needed to build a botnet.

I saw a screenshot of this. He was in the admin panel of the university. And there, in front of him, was a list of all the students who owed money to the school. And it all added up to $9 million. And he started to think... Could I? Should I mess with this?
