The greatest heist in tech history nets you... $49.99. That's the reality of supply chain attacks. You hack into an NPM package with billions of downloads, gain access to millions of dev machines, and what do you get? Enough for a mediocre dinner and maybe parking. The real kicker? Those NPM maintainers aren't even making that much themselves. The entire JavaScript ecosystem runs on unpaid labor, prayers, and the occasional GitHub sponsor who feels generous after their third coffee. Thank god most hackers are as underpaid as the rest of us, or we'd all be doomed.
