Hand over the dough or your 40GB of secret data is toast.
Useful context from @callouscomic:
Misleading headline.
From a different site:
with attackers demanding a $150,000 ransom in “baguettes,” an obtuse reference to the company’s headquarters being located in France. In reality, the attackers are looking for payment in Monero, a privacy-focused cryptocurrency.

En iz better be good baguette!
That’s a lot of dough
That's so stupid, I would demand that ransom in baguettes, ham and butter instead
... or do they mean Baguette Tokens?
