    Not following… Since this is a cybersecurity com, I assume that many of us work in this area, literally defending people and organizations from attackers and scammers. That’s why I said some of us make a living out of this in a sad way.

      I’m not saying that cybersecurity folk are the bad ones but that they even have to exist is a sad statement about the corrupted world we live in. Why anyone would deliberately create computer viruses is beyond my understanding at all.

      Isn’t life hard enough for most of us? With our daily grind and frustrations, and then having to deal with computer hackers and people tyrying to steal our personal info and bring down our national systems – the sickness of hackers is beyond my understanding.
