It's not even that uncommon for cybercrooks to get let out of jail and literally go dig up a trezor hardware wallet and retrieve millions of stolen money.

I don't think we've come to terms with the fact that most of these guys will have stuff squirreled away everywhere, just in case. In the past, if you got busted they pretty much knew what you had in your bank accounts, which were all frozen, and any cash you had would be seized.

But that's not even relevant anymore. It's like having lots of ill-gotten bitcoin makes you a member of the mob or a cartel, in that you will always have some kind of protection when you get out.

One of the problems with prosecuting cybercriminals is that building cases and investigations takes time, often years. In the meanwhile, the bad guys are ransoming this and extorting that and really harming a lot of people.

But what if we went after all the sim-swappers and other assholes in The Com by taking a page from the prosecution of Al Capone? I'm talking about just filing notices of unreported income with the IRS on all of these guys? I think the IRS even still has a bounty program for this kind of thing.

It sounds like bsky is scrambling to add capacity and so they have limited some functionality. At their scale, I am left wondering how exactly they are paying for it since I don’t think they have an actual revenue stream. Perhaps I am wrong on that.

I firmly believe that enterprise organizations unwilling to embrace remote and hybrid work models will soon face a shrinking talent pool and unprecedented lows in employee retention. The enforcement of return-to-office mandates will become a gold mine of talent for forward-thinking companies.
