Terribly curious to hear the details. “Some hackers did something with some data and crippled a large car company” is about all I got out of that article.
I got $1 says they gained access by whaling one of the execs.
Jaguar? Land Rover? Asshole cars for mostly assholes… You know the usuals cutting you off or speeding past you just to get to the red sooner. I say “continue”. LOL. Seriously, don’t get a jag.
Asshole cars for mostly assholes
from the article:
Some firms have reportedly already laid off staff, with the Unite union claiming that workers in the JLR supply chain “are being laid off with reduced or zero pay.” Some have been told to “sign up” for government benefits, the union claims.
…
JLR, which is owned by India’s Tata Motors, is one of the UK’s biggest employers, with around 32,800 people directly employed in the country. Stats on the company’s website also claim it supports another 104,000 jobs through its UK supply chain and another 62,900 jobs “through wage-induced spending.”
regardless of your opinion about the cars or the people who drive them…thousands of people getting furloughed or laid off suddenly is bad.
