Yup. Time moves on and change happens. Just ashame progress is often stunted by older people who don't like change. Feel bad for those who struggle to adapt to the computer age and have noone to really teach them. I've had to help many of my older coworkers (both CNAs and Nurses) with computer work because our management did such a piss poor job making sure people understand how to access viral functions on the computer; i pretty much taught myself how to use alot of it and spent many nights on the computer patiently helping coworkers do stuff while doing my own work.

This explains why the reward is of millions of dollars to get people to turn on these guys. If they have made millions of $, you need to pay a lot of money for this. Now...the Iron Curtain existed during the Cold War. There's no Iron Curtain now but there are borders with Russia. As for that guy not being captured, if thigns continue like they have, he will be. Also, Russian borders don't mean he will live long and won't have a violent end if he starts attacking essential infrastructure. You can get into Russia without the FSB knowing if you have the skills. Seeing that Lockbit is offering their own reward for doxing law enforcement makes me think that they're out of touch with reality. They're just annoying the feds even more.
