RE: "Worst-Ever Recorded" Ransomware Attack = NSA Attack on Bitcoin

It irritates me that organisations that are trying to expose irresponsible government exploits such as Wikileaks and Shadowbrokers are getting the blame for these attacks. They are the only ones trying to shore up the gaping holes in important infrastructure such as NHS patient records.

Agreed.. I think groups like the "Shadow Brokers" should be embraced.. but we also see this in the white hat hacking community as well.. If I find a vulnerability on another network and report that to the system administrator, more that likely that system admin will take some kind of lawful action against the white hat hacker, in stead of thanking that individuals for exposing holes in there network..
