Monkey was very happy while playing osu, which was his very favorite video game.
osu!
BACK TO PRESENT
osu!
Monkey was sad because osu crashed and wouldn't open again.
osu!
Aw man
osu!
The reason Monkey couldn't run osu was because of Mr. Robert E. Lee Key! Mr. Robert E. Lee Key took Monkey's osu files and held them for ransom, only returning the files if Monkey paid him money. This is an example of ransomware, where someone holds someone else's software for money.
muahahahah!
And now, because monkey replicated the osu files, he could play again!
osu!
yay
osu!
In conclusion, ransomware is when software is taken for "ransom", which is when someone takes someone's private software and holds it until the owner pays a sum of money. A good way to combat this is to create duplicates of the software, so you always have a backup even if your software gets taken for ransom.
THANKS FOR READING!
The ransomware didn't work because Monkey replicated the osu files. Because of this, Mr. Robert E. Lee Key did not get the money!
