A cyber-security firm says it believes the Russia-linked REvil ransomware gang is responsible.

About 200 US businesses have been hit by a "colossal" ransomware attack, according to a cyber-security firm.

The cyber-breach emerged on Friday afternoon as companies across the US were clocking off for the long Independence Day weekend. The company said it was urging customers that use its VSA tool to immediately shut down their servers.that a "small number" of companies had been affected, though Huntress Labs said the number is already about 200 and counting.

At a summit in Geneva last month, US President Joe Biden said he told Russian President Vladimir Putin he had a responsibility to rein in such cyber-attacks.

Is that why my phone died 👎🥺

Hopefully not the places that Joe said we off limits last week. I'm sure those hackers play nice.

100% These are English hackers from the special services ....

The virus has brought out a new stream of young hackers and can only get bigger and stronger. Watch this space it may be the BBC next

Apparently they threaten to use information about you to ruin your reputation. I find this surprising, because I never knew I had a reputation.

我被脑控流氓迫害35年。亲人被车祸、被癌症、被中风,死亡8位,死状惨烈。亲人车祸骨折和重大疾病发生千百次。各种常人闻所未闻的黑科技酷刑和迫害。大小攻击达百万次。简直丧心病狂、惨无人道。 请全世界关注脑控受害者。因为这事关所有人的命运与自由。

Most welcome, precious people!

Just America and China doing what they usually do.

USA be running Windows XP.

These will probably be the same ones the UK government eventually sell our private health to.

Judging by the picture the hacker may be The Hulk.
