San Francisco’s Muni Vows: We Won’t Pay Bitcoin Ransom

San Francisco’s Muni has vowed to not give the attacker a single bitcoin of his 100 bitcoin ransom demand. The agency says no customer or transaction information was compromised in the attacks, although payment kiosks were disrupted. As a result, Muni opted to open the fare gates in the subway, thus allowing people to ride for free. “We have never considered paying the ransom,” Muni spokesman Paul Rose tells CNN’s Shelly Kramer. Muni says email and payroll systems weren’t affected by the attack, and timekeeping was kept time for employees.”]
