Audibly laughing at the ransomware operator who, when realizing he is being raided by the Ukrainian police, climbs on top of his apartment buildings roof with a ladder and gives 2 middle fingers to the police.

They released footage of some of the arrests
When we began doing these cyber security giveaways our goal was to give these things to people who we believe need them or would benefit them.
Many of us in vx-underground come from less than ideal backgrounds and we did not have the financial means to formally attend a university or enroll in any meaningful sort of training. Most of grinded - we purchased books (or 'borrowed' some PDFs), and began the grind.
We understand what it's like eating ramen noodles everyday - even trying to mix things up by throwing some slices of cheese in them 😂😂😂.
We understand the feeling of inadequacy when you see tech nerds and 'influencers' flaunt their new and expensive car, luxury items, and travels from around the world while you remain in the same ol' room on the same ol' grind.
It isn't easy, life isn't fair, and some people are just plain lucky ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The primary objective of vx-underground is to function as a library, for the morbidly curious, for researchers, for students. Additionally, as we have grown in size, we now are presented with the opportunity to gift individuals who may not come from ideal circumstances with things that could accelerate their career, give them a feeling of chance or hope, and provide educational material with things that will make an impact on their life.
With that being said, we want to make something very, very, very clear. We love receiving e-mails from accomplished individuals, we are genuinely happy for you that you were accepted into an Ivy league university (such as MIT), and we are happy you have a massive array of computer certifications. But... our giveaways are more or less focused for those we believe could benefit it. To be blunt: bro, you've got it made. You don't 'need' a free course from us. We can't knock the hustle, we respect it, but you're already on top
Malware samples have been restored. Everything is back and normal.
Forgot to add a password to errr... a few files. But it's been fixed:)

In all seriousness, this is probably a violation of the United States Computer Fraud and Abuse Act and it will probably irritate the FBI if they discover some nerd is ransoming porch pirates.
Don't do it!
Some nerd on Twitter named Bjorn Staal is programming out of his mind.
11/10. Solid programming skills (designed to demonstrate quantum entanglement)
Yes, we are aware there has been some interesting ransomware activity the past couple of days and more internet nerd drama.

Students,
We are working to secure another educational course giveaway with a different accredited institution. This course will focus primarily on reverse engineering and malware analysis.

Going forward vx-underground should in no shape or form be described as professionals. We have made a large oopsie - a nearly catastrophic oopsie doopsie.
All malware samples have been temporarily removed from vx-underground until we repair this monumental whoopsie
We wanna be the Mr. Beast of malware related material 😂😂😂

2. Wrap with pretty Christmas wrap
