Cyberpunk cyberpunked:Game developer CD Projekt announced it was the victim of a ransomware attack in which hackers managed to steal the source code to key games.
It's not that much of a big deal. No serious game developer wants to even be seen reading stolen game source and even then there's not much you can do with several million lines of code without context anyway. They should of course strive to never have it happen again regardless.
Indeed. I could see some bootlegger in China being willing to pay, perhaps, but beyond that? No legitimate company will touch that source code with a ten-foot pole. They know they'll be sued into oblivion if they get caught.
