trends/why-india-is-at-greater-risk-from-wannacry-2278895.html

the article seeks to explain why we in India are highly vulnerable, which
we on this list should have no difficulty believing, but then goes on to
point out that the actual damage has been little. How come?

Does anyone have personal experience of this virus?

Microsoft seems to treat viruses as part of marketing strategy -- with all
the affected and scared people upgrading, they'll make a pile of money.

Those of us who run Linux, of course, see this as an occasion to put out
yet another tired smile.

warmly,
Arun Mehta
