               A large cyber-crime network was taken down, in the wake of a joint operation between Europe and the US. Yem individuals from Russia, Europe, and several states that broke off from the Soviet Union, were indicted in a Pittsburgh court, and were charged with mass financial theft, infection of 400,000 computers, and the theft of 100 million dollars. 

       This is a milestone in a series of take-downs, including but not limited to, dark web marketplaces, large scale pedophile rings, and cyber-crime networks. This has been a joint effort between the US, the UK, and Europe. A spokesperson did state that if criminals can cooperate across borders, then so can law enforcement, in order to curb them and bring them to justice.
