Hacktivists release two gigabytes of Heritage Foundation data
Hacktivists release two gigabytes of Heritage Foundation data
A politically-oriented cybercrime group carried out the attack in response to Heritage’s Project 2025.
Gay Furry Hackers, if you're listening, I think you would be widely rewarded by our press for releasing some emails.
What is really needed is where else those email addresses are used and how long ago they signed up on other sites
I want to see IP addresses more than anything. If the vast majority are either from a VPN, especially those owned by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teddy_Sagi (ExpressVPN and PIA), or from Russia, it’s pretty clear where this influence is coming from and it should be deemed treasonous immediately
I'm sure they use the same password.
Honestly the press wouldn't do anything with it unless it mentioned biden
I like how the hackers who are exposing the Heritage Foundation as the HQ for American right-wing Christofascism are the criminals. Good job "unbiased" media.
The people who own the media are part of the group that was attacked by them. Of course they would portray them as the criminals. They're just good upstanding wealthy White Collar thieves
I mean yeah hacking is definitely a crime even if they're exposing bad people
Usernames and passwords mostly. Godspeed gay furry hacktivists!
Ok, that's the good stuff, I was thinking 2 GB is nothing. But, 2 GB of logon credentials can make lots of future leaks.
Self-described “gay furry hackers,”
How do they use the keyboard?!
A Heritage spokesperson told CyberScoop after publication that the organization was not “hacked.” Instead, the spokesperson said “an organized group stumbled upon a two-year-old archive of The Daily Signal website that was available on a public-facing website owned by a contractor. The information obtained was limited to usernames, names, email addresses, and incomplete password information of both Heritage and non-Heritage contributors, as well as article comments and the IP address of the commentor.”
At least they're admitting to being incompetent...
Anything juicy or is it just logins?
Brain: Logins can get many juicy.
Me: “Explain how!”
