Seattle’s public library system is currently experiencing a ransomware attack and it is the most enraging and frustrating kidnapping of one of the only spaces in the city where you aren’t expected to spend money. Librarians are checking out physical media and recording it on paper.
Drove to the Shoreline Branch of the King County Library system and am clearly one of many Seattle Public Library refugees. The very patient librarian told me the ran out of stamps mailing new cards to Seattle residents.
