If I started a “hack back” firm to take some of that cash back, would I also be immune from any serious form of reprisal? (Aside from the odd North Korean hit man.)

Exclusive: UN experts investigate 58 cyberattacks worth $3 bln by North Korea
United Nations sanctions monitors are investigating dozens of suspected cyberattacks by North Korea that raked in $3 billion to help it further develop its nuclear weapons program, according to excerpts of an unpublished U.N. report reviewed by Reuters.
"The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) continued to flout Security Council sanctions," a panel of independent sanctions monitors reported to a Security Council committee, using North Korea's formal name.
… Any further action against North Korea by the council is unlikely as it had been deadlocked for several years on the issue. China and Russia instead want the sanctions to be eased to convince Pyongyang to return to denuclearization talks.

A new branch of English for the next generation? (Because I sure didn’t learn it.)
AI: Arizona State University English class embracing artificial intelligence
… Some of the tools in Dr. Kyle Jensen's class – a white board and dry erase marker – look similar to what one would find in an average, traditional classroom. The advanced English class, however, is state-of-the-art, as it incorporates AI.
"One of the things that we try to do at ASU is teach in a way that's timely," said Dr. Jensen. "If there are topics that are emerging that are on our students' minds, we create courses that speak to where they are."
The students are working on prompts in ChatGPT, and how that can effect the program, as well as the results.
