While health care has become the primary target for cybercriminals in recent years, putting lives at risk, the sector paradoxically invests less in cybersecurity than any other industry, leaving high-value data vulnerable to attack.

For cybercriminals, targeting health data “is a perfect business plan,” said Christos Xenakis, professor at the department of digital systems at the University of Piraeus, Greece. “It’s easy to steal data, and what you steal, you can sell it at a high price.”

However, other types of cyberattacks are also on the rise, including those by pro-Russian hacktivists aiming to disrupt health care operations, rather than for profit.

While the risks are clear, national governments are skimping on prevention, Xenakis believes, saying that he has no good example of a country “that has invested a lot in cybersecurity in the health sector.”

Magalini also pointed out another shortcoming: cybersecurity consultancies that assist hospitals often originate from outside Europe. “They are either from the United States or Canada … also from Russia,” she said, adding that there should be a “European way of doing cybersecurity.”

Big corps like reddit and pornhub will likely not lower themselves to the likes of pirate bay. Not my opinion, only an assumption.

Well to be honest, Microsofts route also doesnt seem to work out. I am not surprised they try another way.

Funny how a lot of communication about this uses Korea and not South Korea.

flat earthers happen because of trusting people too much

I think the reason they end up trusting other flat earthers is because they're being skeptical of science and authority in the first place though. Since the majority of the trusts the world is round, if it were only a matter of too much trust they would have no issue trusting scientists. It is ironic they are sceptical to all kinds of scientific proof but not to this community of reality-deniers though.

it does not require that you agree with them.

If only more people understood this, the world would already look so much nicer.

Being critical of someones opinion ≠ critical thinking

Critical thinking is the process of analyzing available facts, evidence, observations, and arguments to make sound conclusions or informed choices. It involves recognizing underlying assumptions, providing justifications for ideas and actions, evaluating these justifications through comparisons with varying perspectives, and assessing their rationality and potential consequences. The goal of critical thinking is to form a judgment through the application of rational, skeptical, and unbiased analyses and evaluation.
