    Hey dude I'm a fan of your videos :)
    Your reverse shell explaination is worded slightly wrong. A reverse shell does spawn a shell on the compromised computer. In Linux the process is along the lines of:
    1) Create socket on victim comp via socket syscall
    2) Connect back to attackers computer which is listening for a connection via connect syscall
    3) Make STDIN, STDOUT, STDERR for process on victim computers go to socket created in step 1 via dup2 syscall
    4) Spawn a shell on victim computer via execve syscall.
    STDIN, STDOUT, STDERR for the spawned shell on victim computer will now go through the socket and appear on the listening client on the attackers computer. Input to the listening client will be sent back to the shell on the victim computer.
    A bind shell is slightly different in that the victim computer does not connect back to attacker computer. Instead it opens up a listening port on the victim computer.... The attacker then connects to the listening port on the victim computer. In both cases however, the shell is running on the victims computer.
    One of advantages of a reverse shell over s bind shell is it's easier to get past a firewall by connecting out to a commonly allowed outbound port, e.g port 80 or 443.

They actually report back to Facebook that you've visited that page (yep, every single page with that embed this), and they can tailor ads suited to what you just visited. For example, maybe you just visited a blog about parenting your new-born baby or something, then you might suddenly see ads for baby products. Google does about the same, but in a different way. Almost every site has Google ads, and they also get to know what sites you visit. This might not seem like a big deal, but you probably visit hundreds or even thousands of webpages everyday. With all those data, these companies can build a shockingly accurate and scary profile of you. God forbid you have logged into a Google account in your browser, they can track literally every single website you visit regardless of the presence of any ads or trackers.

    unplugging your computer when ransomware pops up may not be a good idea. The GUI window isn't spawned until the application requests a window object from the API. There is nothing stopping a ransomware from encrypting all of your files and then spawning the GUI window to tell you your files are encrypted. Why would it play its hand early? You might think that you should unplug your computer just in case the designer of the ransomware was dumb and played their hand early, but what if doing so bricks your PC? You don't know that it _doesn't_ encrypt your OS files. If the ransomware uses a rootkit, there is absolutely nothing to stop it from bypassing the locks Windows places on "in use" files and just encrypting your boot sector and kernel. That would take, what, 5 seconds? If you shut off your computer in that case, your computer's gone. Plus, once your hard drive is infected, where are you gonna plug it in to recover your files? Are you sure that's a good idea considering the malware is _on_ that hard drive?
    That's what I would do if I designed a ransomware: infect the hard drive, infect the MBR, make the autorun infect any computer the hard drive is plugged into (the whole reason it's considered dangerous to plug in a rogue thumbdrive), use a rootkit, run all the encryption, encrypt the kernel, encrypt the MBR, then throw up the window saying the files are already encrypted and that shutting down will brick your computer, but also write another dialogue box for the rootkit to run if they shut down the computer and start it back up with a bricked Windows. Shutting down and restarting takes you back to the malware screen. Plugging the hard drive into another computer will most likely infect it etc etc. My point is I would cover every scenario I could think of. So real malware would probably be much worse.

      My only experience with ransomware was once, using Windows 7, I disabled the antivirus thinking it was a false positive alert, I was quite wrong. Several programs were installed, and I managed to activate the antivirus and turn off the internet, which seems to have stopped the ransomware, soon after I discovered that some files had been encrypted, nothing very important, but I found a printscreen of my desktop, and a complete dump of all the information that was in Google Chrome. I removed the virus but the system was no longer the same, Chrome always insisted as "managed by your organization", so I formatted the hd.
