A hacker who was part of a ransomware group... - yoohoo - Aug 14, 2023
A hacker who was part of a ransomware group that targeted hospitals in 2016 regretted his actions because due to the interruption in medical system, his own mother couldn't receive timely treatment and died. He later realized that he caused his mother's death in the hospital hit by his ransomware. He decided to quit the group and help the authorities track down his former associates.
This hacker's story shows that ransomware is not a victimless crime. It can have real and devastating consequences for innocent people who need vital services. Hackers who profit from ransomware should rethink their targets and their motives. Instead of being villains, they could be robin hoods in the cyber world. They could target unethical businesses or most unwelcomed businesses, such as those that exploit workers, harm the environment, or evade taxes. They could use their skills and resources to expose corruption, injustice, or fraud.

This seems likely.
