    In other news ZFS and proper back ups do this in about 30 seconds.

      I know you meant backups can protect against ransomware, but it would be pretty funny if ZFS included a ransomware password cracker

        Depending on the depth of the ransomware a simple “zfs rollback” will fix all your problems.
