Would you pay $1m for a laptop full of malware?
A laptop deliberately infected with six notorious strains of malware, including WannaCry and ILoveYou, is being auctioned in the US as an art project.
At time of writing, the highest bid for the device was $1.1m (£800,000).
The auction states that the Samsung laptop's internet connectivity will be disabled when the device is shipped to the auction winner.
The 11-year-old Notebook has been air-gapped - a security measure to isolate it from other networks. -

Something can only be air gapped if it is powered on and connected to something. Why is it on OR connected to ANYTHING?
