I wonder how this news will affect the betting on spez remaining as CEO till the end of the year.

Assuming ALPHV/BlackCAT follows through this will make him liability for profits.

I mean, just blackmailing people is enough to get someone in big legal trouble. So I'm going to guess he's 1) pretty anonymous and 2) living in a country that won't cooperate with the US or extradite their citizens.
