@mattburgess That Lockbit take down was epic. They clearly took a few pages out of the Anonymous playbook. I would love to see more of that.

Nice article!

@Trustnowan Thanks a lot! The sense I get is that there'll be a lot more of that kind of thing, although a bunch of it will probably be more subtle. Really think they wanted to make an example out of LockBit and destroy the brand as much as anything
