Not Paying Ransomware is the Only Way We All Win
Ransomware is on the rise because cybercriminals are being rewarded. Those who are impacted have been paying the ransoms, thereby funding and encouraging attackers to expand and target others.
The right path forward, to crush ransomware attacks, is clear. Better cybersecurity preparedness and a willingness to not pay extortionists, regardless of their actions, is how we collectively defeat ransomware.

True, but such actions hurt everyone. I agree that proper understanding and investment up-front is the key.
