Do cybercriminals ever get caught or what?
If so, drain every asset they own to help cover these costs. Also, throw them in jail in proportion to the amount of damage they caused and who their target was.
A LOT of cyber criminals never get caught, and on top of that they usually live in a different country, so even if they get caught there’s no way for the german state of ever accessing their assets.
