You're listening to the CyberWire Network, powered by N2K.

The collected works of the Shadow Brokers, Volume 1, read by D.W. Bitner. Ode to wealthy elite. We want to make sure wealthy elite

recognizes the danger cyber weapons, this message, our auction poses to their wealth

and control.

Let us spell out for elites.

Your wealth and control depends on electronic data.

You see what Equation Group can do.

You see what crypto lockers and Stuxnet can do.

You see free files we give for free. You see attacks on banks and Swift in news. Maybe there is equation group

version of crypto locker plus stucksnet for banks and financial systems.

If Equation Group lose control of cyber weapons,

who else lose or find cyber weapons.

If electronic data go by by, where leave wealthy elites.

Maybe with dumb cattle?

Do you feel in charge?

Wealthy elites.

You send bit coins.

You bid an auction.

Maybe big advantage for you've been listening to the ShadowSpeak Podcast by the CyberWire, where the writings of the

dark underworld of cybercrime and espionage are reinterpreted and reimagined for the benefit of the Infosec literati.

Of course, it's also just play and parody from the ever restless imaginations of the Cyberwire

editorial team.
