Caesars Entertainment confirms ransom payment, customer data theft
Caesars' 8-K also implies that a ransom demanded by the attackers was paid to prevent the leak of the stolen data online—a Wall Street Journal report says the hotel and casino entertainment company paid roughly $15 million, half of the attackers' initial $30 million demand.

They won't pay their fucking employees/ union. Fuck Caesars.
Love to see the robbers get robbed! Happy news :)
What do you mean? They got half what they wanted, and any number above 0 is profit for them.
I think they meant casinos being the robbers too
I'm dumb, thanks for the clarification.
No worries, take care
I thought that paying any ransomware ransom was illegal.
