Okay, deep breath, let's get this over with. In the grand act of digital self-sabotage, we've littered this site with cookies. Yep, we did that. Why? So your highness can have a 'premium' experience or whatever. These traitorous cookies hide in your browser, eagerly waiting to welcome you back like a guilty dog that's just chewed your favorite shoe.

ARRL Data Breach Hits Sour Note: Amateur Radio Group Confirms Employee Data Stolen by Cyber Bandits
When hackers tuned into the ARRL’s frequency, they hit more than just static. Data from 150 employees got swiped in a May ransomware gig. ARRL’s singing the blues, offering free ID monitoring. No proof of misuse yet, but they’re playing it safe—no solos for identity…
Hot Take:

ARRL assures us they've done everything but send out an SOS in Morse code to keep that data from going on a world tour. So, let’s unpack this digital heist that's got less horsepower than a ham radio but more punch than a mic drop.
