  1. My PC was attack with full of ransomware and always misfanction then I was referred to puzzlecrackk via IG by the admin and everything got alright within an hour

  2. I build computers myself and use both Linux and Windows. These Organizations should know a few rules by now
    1. Don't click on suspicious e-mail links
    2. Check for Windows Updates Daily.
    3. TURN OFF REMOTE DESKTOP IN WINDOWS. ON EVERY COMPUTER IN THE HOSPITAL.

    & 5. STORE PATIENT DATA BACKUPS OFFLINE! ONLY USE A COMPUTER SYSTEM NOT CONNECTED TO THE DAMN INTERNET!
    If the Orgs IT Dept was SMART. They would Be doing this by now!
    With this said. No it's not bullet proof. But it would increase the Organizations Security to some extent.
    FINALLY! IF THE U.S.A. WANTS TO REALLY FIX THE PROBLEM. I think it's time to disconnect our international cables under the ocean. To keep foreign hackers out. Make the U.S. internet Nation wide only!. However you're still
    Vulnerable to Hackers within the U.S.A.

  3. Biden's answer
    Give them 10 million dollars for job well done I mean
    Hopefully everything will work out but with covid-19 and systemic Racisum holding us back. Previous administration ran away and hid while my family saved Christmas and black people.

  4. The fault lies with the manufactures of systems hardware and software. It's time the manufactures build in better security, rather than rely on the security software industry to fix design flaws in their software. Time for a rethink of the software architecture and the way data is separated from applications, and add hardware interlocks.

  5. "Warriors confront the evil that most people REFUSE to acknowledge!"

    – (The BIG Picture)

    "The First World War must be brought about in order to permit the Illuminati to overthrow the power of the Czars in Russia and of making that country a FORTRESS of atheistic COMMUNISM. The divergences caused by the “agentur” (agents) of the Illuminati between the British and Germanic Empires will be used to foment this war. At the end of the war, Communism will be built and used in order to DESTROY the other governments and in order to WEAKEN the religions.

    The Second World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences between the Fascists and the political Zionists. This war must be brought about so that Nazism is destroyed and that the political Zionism be strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine. During the Second World War, International COMMUNISM must become strong enough in order to balance Christendom, which would be then restrained and held in check until the time when we would need it for the FINAL social cataclysm.

    The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the agentur of the “Illuminati” between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam and political Zionism mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…
    We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists (China, Russia) and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil.

    Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure DOCTRINE OF LUCIFER, brought finally out in the PUBLIC view.
    This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both CONQUERED and EXTERMINATED at the same time.”  – Albert Pike (100% accurate predicting ALL 3 World Wars)

    "Masonry, like all the Religions, all the Mysteries, Hermeticism and Alchemy, CONCEALS its secrets from all except the Adepts and Sages, or the Elect, and uses FALSE explanations and misinterpretations of its symbols to MISLEAD those who deserve only to be misled; to CONCEAL the Truth, which it calls Light from them and to draw them AWAY from it."

    Fictions are necessary for the people, and the Truth becomes deadly to those who are not strong enough to contemplate it in all its brilliance. In fact, what can there be in common between the vile multitude and sublime wisdom? The Truth must be kept SECRET, and the masses need a teaching proportioned to their imperfect reason."

    "That which we must say to the crowd is, we worship a god, but it is the god one adores without superstition. To you sovereign grand inspector general, we say this and you may repeat it to the brethren of the 32nd, 31st and 30th degrees – the Masonic religion should be by all of us initiates of the HIGH degrees, maintained in the purity of the luciferian doctrine. Yes, lucifer is god!" – Albert Pike (Was a Lawyer, writer, Confederate General and a 33 degree Freemason/Satanic Illuminati.)

     – Albert Pike published this in a book "Morals & Dogma" in 1871. WW1 started in 1914, the Nazi party was established in 1920. Let that sink in…

    Revelation 12:9
    “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which DECEIVETH the WHOLE world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”

    John 3:16
    “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

  6. I think you also have to mention that 3/4 or more of the ransomware attacks come from Russian language countries. And that is not according to a U.S. cybersecurity firm, that is coming from a Russian one 2 years ago (Kaspersky). So businesses and governments need to put more pressure on Ukraine, eastern bloc and Russian countries.

  7. Come on folks, we all know ransom wear usually targets online pedophiles ….which makes you wonder about the "victims". Look it up if you don't believe me.

    And Noooo, just opening an email won't release ransom ware… opening attachments does.

  8. 1) If a business is wealthy yet has crap protection for their tech, that's on them. 2) If a company makes billions, I have no sympathy for them.

  9. The king and his men stole the queen from her bed!
    And bound her in her bones!
    The seas be ours and by the powers!
    Where we will, we'll roam!
    Yo-ho, all together!
    Hoist the colors high!
    Heave ho, thieves and beggars!
    Never shall we die!
