Fridges in supermarkets across Europe have been hacked and set to defrost for a second time this year as part of a cyberattack that will likely cause millions of euros worth of damage. BNO News reports that fridges in Belgium, Luxembourg, Sweden, Ireland, Estonia, and the Netherlands were hacked last night. Affected fridges were programmed to defrost and reach temperatures up to 158°F (70°C), causing chilled foods to spoil. Unlike many cybercriminals, the fridge hackers aren’t attempting to extract a crypto ransom or siphon any funds.
