Insomniac Games has been the victim of a cyberattack by the Rhysida hacker group, and is allegedly demanding a ransom with a starting price of 50 bitcoins - worth more than $2 million. While the Rhysida hackers have given Insomniac a week to respond to their demands, the alleged cyber attackers have already started auctioning data to the highest bidder, starting at 50 BTC.

And I even read that Rhysida has leaked some of the info already in their onion site, albeit blurring the information of those individuals that have been compromised. And then some of the Wolverine pics.

So it's going to be very difficult for the company to just pay those hackers though. Because they don't have the bargaining power, and even if they pay the ransom there is no assurance that the hackers are not going to leak the information as well.

And no one deserves his data to be leaked to the public and being used by this cyber criminals.
