New, breaking: FBI Seizes NetNut Proxy Platform, Popa Botnet "The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) said today it worked with industry partners to seize hundreds of domains associated with NetNut, a sprawling residential proxy service operated by the publicly-traded Israeli company Alarum Technologies [NASDAQ: ALAR]. The action comes roughly two weeks after KrebsOnSecurity published findings from multiple security firms connecting NetNut to the Popa botnet, a collection of at least two million devices that have been compromised by malicious software with little or no consent from victims." https:// krebsonsecurity.com/2026/07/fb i-seizes-netnut-proxy-platform-popa-botnet/ # popa # botnet # cybercrime # residentialproxies # netnut
