It’s just been a joy to watch the material produced by the NCA and friends following the LockBit takedown this week. So much good stuff from the agencies themselves, not just content but high quality trolling too. Then there’s the whole ecosystem of memes that have since emerged and provided endless hours of entertainment 😊 I’m sure we’ll see a lot more come out of this yet and inevitably there’s seized material that will still be providing value to further investigations years from now. Good job folks!
