A fascinating read about something that is afffecting so many daily, and apparently it’s not that different from running any other business. 
 


 
"A man with intense eyes crouches over a laptop in a darkened room, his face and hands hidden by a black ski mask and gloves. The scene is lit only by the computer screen’s eerie glow.
 
Exaggerated portraits of malicious hackers just like this keep popping up in movies and TV, despite the best efforts of shows like Mr. Robot to depict hackers in a more realistic way. Add a cacophony of news about data breaches that have shaken the U.S. government, taken entire hospital systems hostage, anddefrauded the international banking system, and hackers start to sound like omnipotent super-villains."

Modern-day versions of Fagin  it seems, but they are all liable if caught, and long spells in the 'cooler' are likely for all.
