Effort Cronos, a unique multinational law enforcement effort spearheaded by the NCA, FBI, and Europol, has successfully dismantled the infamous cybercrime gang Lock bit.

Its interruption is seen as a significant win against cybercrime. The threat from law enforcement to Lockbits affiliates represents a significant loss for the underground realm of cybercrime.

Since AIgenerated voices are now considered "artificial" and are thus forbidden in automated phone schemes, the Federal Communications Commission FCC
