The average Russian ransomware boss makes $90,000 a year -- or 13 times the average income for citizens in the country who stick to the "straight and narrow," according to a recent Flashpoint study.

channels and Live stories on the Stories page. It previously displayed

anyone over the last eight years if that were possible, you would have

anything is now possible. Today Apple, Google and Samsung are enormous,
but the rate of smartphone growth has slowed.
