Cabal of 'gay furry hackers' claims over 3,000 files stolen in NATO website breach
Cabal of 'gay furry hackers' claims over 3,000 files stolen in NATO website breach
NATO says it's "actively addressing incidents" but not to worry about the bombs dropping anytime soon.
The headline itself made this worth sharing
Plot twist: they stole gay furry porn from nato servers.
That’s why they’re so mad. They didn’t just copy it; they deleted it after. Monsters!
3000 files seems like an arbitary amount. Nothing's preventing you from creating a file for each passing millisecond.
so a group of furry hackers is a cabal, not like a pack or a litter or something
"FBI Bags Litter of Hacker Furries"
Don't feed the fetish
OwO
Surely it would be less redundant to just say 'hackers'

That SHOULD be a shocking headline but... have any awareness of the various hacker orgs out there and this doesn't even move the needle.
That said: I always have mixed thoughts when it comes to hacks like this. Because governments and the like do a lot of REALLY heinous shit and getting awareness of the particularly fucked up stuff is important.
But hacker orgs tend to not work with journalists who understand how to vet and redact things. So you might get something "juicy" and then a LOT of information that the general public will never read but OTHER organizations will and will use to endanger people who actually aren't being monsters (or are possibly being coerced into supporting occupation forces).

Did you think Nato would store nukular codes on their Neocities website?

Chelsea Manning was a prime example of this.
I personally blame that more on wikileaks and "The Media"
Wikileaks was very much put forward as paragons of journalism and so forth. And ignoring the editorialized headlines for a lot of their "leaks" (and I think a few were determined to be outright intentionally mislabeling footage?), they very much were not "journalists", They basically just put anything and everything they were given online. Whether it is footage of US soldiers committing war crimes or the secret handshake of a sorority (seriously...). They did a lot of good and a LOT of bad.
She... probably should have done a better job of pre-filtering what she provided. But she also, likely, thought she was giving a CNN journalist the information rather than the equivalent of a kid on reddit.
What a relief, I'd hate to think those files ended up in the wrong
pawshands.Based and furpilled
Can the gay furries get the alien files next?
Wasn't that supposed to be the Naruto-running guy's job?
THEY HAD ONE JOB
the group says it's gotten into the government web portal for the South African OR Tambo district
As a South African, that's not much of an accomplishment
Oh no, did the mass Activation of everyone yesterday contribute to this?
3000 stolen files of gay furry hackers
Holy shit, I mean hackers are bad but gay furry hackers...that's crossing the line.
Yes that is quite the headline for sure.
Can we start a Legion of Gay Fury Hackers (₲ay͎₣ur)
3,000 black files of NATO
Guy looks like Harrison Ford’s accountant brother.
Yet another reason to dislike furries, most unsurprising.
Tons of infosec folks are furries, gay etc.. I'm presuming, because having to hide your personality is quite the motivation to learn about potential attacks and defenses.
So, no matter whether you think of this particular stunt as good or bad, it's really not indicative of gay furry hackers a whole. Most of them are holding our IT infrastructure together, without doing big name hacks in their freetime.
the call from the gay furry hackers is coming from inside the house
Pretty sure it's mainly non-furry non-gay hackers that take down the majority of websites.
It looks like someone got hacked by a furry.
