Just a thought...
... but having looked over the code available on github, I question this guys supposed skillset.
The code will create quite a mess, and does indeed do what is claimed, but is certainly not very good at it. Despite the fact that I have never written an app with this specific outcome, I have done all the component parts, and actively use most of them in my daily job. Also, looking at his site, he seems to be quite open about his accomplishments, none of which are that impressive either.
I've never been hit with any kind of ransomware, but am oddly curious now about the actual level of damage inflicted given that the code I have now seen makes it simple to recover from.
Anonymous, because I know not to push my luck.
