PewDiePie Ransomware Runs Amok in Battle for YouTube Supremacy - Mad-Architect - 03-25-2019           People have been getting hit with new strains of ransomware, two to be exact, that have been released by hard-core PewDiePie fans. These two act as per the standard behavior of ransomware, only difference is that it will let you have your files back if and when PewDiePie reaches 100 million subscribers, or on the other hand, it will delete all of your data if T-Series was to hit 100 million subscribers.       This is the latest in the online rivalry between PewDiePie and T-Series, who have had an on-going subscriber war for several years now. Recently a GUI decryptor was released so that users can bypass the rivalry and retrieve their data.       Original article can be found here.            That was the news folks, have a good week, and stay safe out there.       ---Mad-Architect
