Do we have any solid data on that yet? I have my doubts that this caused more damage than WannaCry did a few years ago, especially since it's reversible without the need of a backup
Brother, or sister, I know fuck all about information technology. You make a good point and definitely know way more about this than i do. But I will say this, I don't think wannacry disrupted millions of peoples travel plans all at once. so maybe less damage, but I think it was Hella more disruptive to the general population .
