Every day gives us a different reason. For example, I find the <a href="https://en.ara.cat/international/cyberattack-spoils-the-food-of-dozens-of-supermarkets-in-belgium-and-sweden_1_5897504.html" >cyberattack that has affected dozens of supermarkets in Europe</a> to be of a particularly refined evil. At night, someone ordered the machines to go from sub-zero temperatures to 50 degrees. The result is that tons and tons of food have been spoiled. I say that I find it of a particularly refined evil in the sense of being psychologically refined. No one was hurt, the attack caused financial damage, but above all, it has made us feel vulnerable where it hurts the most: making a reality of the dystopia of going shopping and seeing that there is no food. If someone wanted to send the message that they have us in their hands with a simple cyberattack, they have succeeded. </p>]]></description>

Rivas, who led the town hall of this municipality for the PSC between 2015 and 2024, is being investigated as part of a process that probes public contracts of the council, according to <a href="https://www.elperiodico.com/es/barcelona/20260421/mossos-incautacion-movil-exalcalde-esparreguera-eduard-rivas-128933087" rel="nofollow">has been reported by </a><a href="https://www.elperiodico.com/es/barcelona/20260421/mossos-incautacion-movil-exalcalde-esparreguera-eduard-rivas-128933087" rel="nofollow"><em>El Periódico</em></a>, which explains that the Mossos confiscated the socialist official's mobile phone three months ago. Illa has reaffirmed his "full confidence" in his collaborator.</p>]]></description>
