Oof. LockBit added Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida to their leak site with a file list and samples. The countdown clock is 10 days, and LockBit claims to have 2 TB of files, and:

"Seems that HCPS do not care about their county's 270 000 students and 17 000 teachers data. We give them 10 days to consider and we will release all data to public after 3 day auction to sell it private."
