> they refuse to pay the ransom and have no other way to tell what was stolen. Farcical.
It's bad that they don't know what was taken, but as for paying the ransom, I wouldn't do it either: first, because it's danegeld; second, because you're just exposing yourself to even further risk by accepting files from criminals; third, because as others said, it would be UK tax money.
