The ransom note asked for 50 bitcoins (around $1.9 million at the time) in exchange for revealing the vulnerability used to breach the network and for returning the stolen files.

Only $1.9M? If you risk going to jail, make it worth it.

Oh come on now, that's enough money to buy you a very nice 2 bedroom home in a remote suburb of a nice city.
