Reality update: Marcus Hutchins, WannaCry-killer, hit with four new charges by the FBI … :
I do not think the whole story is clear yet, but my intuition tells me to doubt the US version of this story – and I know many people are thankful to Mr. Hutchins for stopping Wannacry, however accidentally that may have been. But what is going on in the court room here? I can’t tell. But the sad part is – as long as it remains unclear, this guy is another Snowden, locked away from home:
“Hutchins, who is living in Los Angeles on bail, is unable to leave the United States since last year due to his pending criminal charges. Hutchins stormed to fame and hailed as a hero earlier last year when he accidentally stopped a global epidemic of the WannaCry ransomware attack that crippled computers all across the world.“
