In case you are wondering, the Australian army were sent in with machine guns.. but they lost the war as the emus just ran away, they’re pretty quick.

It’s 1am. I googled emus, ended up on the Emu War page (sorry, “Great Emu War” as it was called). Nobody show James Cameron this page or we’ll end up with another 12 Avatar movies.

What's also shocking from their arrest and appearance in court today and the US charges is the allegation businesses paid them 9 figures (!) in ransoms to avoid disclosure - the court was told today Thalha allegedly has $200m in cryptocurrency and Owen has $8m.
How is it normal businesses are funding that?

"In October 2024 and January 2025, Jubair participated in a scheme to gain unauthorized access to the networks of a U.S.-based critical infrastructure company and the U.S. Courts."
Related: not very stealthy, they posted screenshots of their access this week.

For the record, since I think it's now safe to say - Thalha Jubair (a teen) is the key guy behind LAPSUS$/Scattered Spider/ShinyHunters and allegedly most of the big cyber incidents of the past 5 years.
He's been running rings around everybody since he was 14.
