How is this obvious AI slop getting upvoted so much?
After the Panama Papers and similar leaks, people are ready to believe some kind of anonymous hacker collective is still out there investigating and releasing information. So they'll jump on the headline, because it resonates with their memories of historical incidents. They won't interrogate it, because they're not in the position to sift fact from fiction.
This is one of the problems with Upvote-based news aggregators to begin with. You're asking people to make evaluations of an article's interest at the headline level, rather than relying on editors and ombudsmen to sift out what information is both credible and interesting to a wide audience.
This is going to be another Panama files isn't it? Overwhelming evidence that billionaires are shits and world governments everywhere collectively do fuck all about it.
I'm certain some people will go to jail.
You can't just release information about politicians and billionaires and not go to jail.
I see what you did there.. 😂
Can people just stop spreading this demoralizing nonsense? Maybe it's not instant-world-changing, but it's definitely not "fuck all" either.
From your links:
Von der Goltz pleaded guilty in December 2019 to conspiracy to commit tax evasion, fraud and submitting false documents. He has already repaid the government more than $230,000.
Original indictment:
These shell companies and bank accounts made investments totaling tens of millions of dollars.
Make it make sense
"Not world changing" is insulting for the amount of money these people hid to avoid taxes.
I think they were able to recoup a few billion in taxes or something, but like, no arrests or anything. I think one person got killed exposing it too.

Yes, journalist Daphne Galizia was murdered: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daphne_Caruana_Galizia#Panama_Papers
Its fake
Technically only half true. They know, but they're not doing fuck all about it, they're murdering the journalists that expose the rampant corruption.
I mean world governments are run by and for billionaires. People gotta pitchfork if they want something done about it.
Everybody already knew Russia was hot assfire.
There's a twitter thread. An account named 'Anonymous France' has posted this link : https://www.mediafire.com/file/9prdor8m7a1z9f6/Leaked+Data+of+corrupt+officials.rar/file . Cannot verify the veracity of this information, but there was a r/worldnews thread saying that's its mostly worthless. This news site is known for peddling fake news, so it might be a whole lot of nonsense.
I give Anonymous credit on one thing: they're always punching upwards.

4chan should go down more often lol
I checked some of it, did they just run nikto against some russian IPs?
Their "vulnerabilities" are mostly clickjacking missing headers and secure flags on cookies (probably not even session cookies)
So it seems. The Russian business receipts may be more useful, but I’m not really sure how this data can be used.
To clarify:
Though the group currently calling itself Anonymous that just published all this ... derives the aesthetics and what not from stuff that arose on 4chan in the mid/late 00s...
They almost certainly have nothing to do with 4chan going down.
4chan was taken down by a group of people that used to post on a 4chan subboard, which was removed... and then they started their own community 'Soyjack Party'.
Which, ironically, is a very similar story as to why 4chan even exists: m00t used to post hentai and loli on SomethingAwful, and then that subboard got shut down, m00t and other frequent posters there got banned, and then they made 4chan.
Like... I stopped using 4chan almost two decades ago now, when m00t made a big announcement post, which later disappeared, stating that as a result of increased media scrutiny and a number of high profile crimes that were connected back to 4chan posts... well m00t said that he was cooperating with the authorities.
I can't prove this, because ... two decades ago, and the announcement was only up for ... less than 24hrs... but yeah, as the SoyJack Party hack of 4chan has confirmed, it was obvious that 4chan was/is a shitshow joke of an operation held together by ducttape and fishing lines.
For fucks sake, their versions of PHP and MySQL were like 12 years out of date and had numerous, extensively well documented security flaws.
Dominos pizza! I knew I tasted something fishy
Danone is an interesting one. They’re the second largest consumer water supplier in the world.

Wait what does 4chan have to do with this?
Just that it got down and all its data (emails, users, passwords) got leaked.
I guess they implied 4chan users, without 4chan, decided to pass the time by hacking Russia
Dilmah!?
pls no...
Found this on hacker news, some people there say this data dump is total bs and for the news page itself: It's an article from an Indian right wing conspiracy news website. Check out their other hard hitting journalism: https://archive.ph/8RGAb"
The screenshot of files looks like an troll. I can't believe nobody is pointing this out.
I mean really. Who even names folders like that.
There are going to be a lot of upset, worried, wealthy people in London today.
Good
Fake as hell, from an immensely disreputable site. What in the hell is this still doing here?
Wonder what's in the trump folder
Nothing. 2 CMD prompt outputs of possible vulnerabilities, nothing concrete at all
thats all under "Leaked Data of Donald Trump"
That's a lot of index files
It may be trump in it but it says krasnov on it.
Krasnov of Mar-a-Lago
There is nothing under the trump folder except 2 pics of possible vulnerabilities from a CMD prompt. Maybe some stuff in other data, but the trump folder is bust
Did you check under Krasnov?
Not yet, will when I get home
It's not a pee tape they have on Kasnov, it's a tape if him getting pegged.
Where can I find these files? Not doing x
Someone please look into the Trump folder and tell us what is there
Is Agent Krasnov on the list?
Trump had a folder on the picture of folders.
I don't know any more than that.
Site is not loading on my side
Surely this means Lemmy has finally reached critical mass and we're slashdotting other sites now. /s
Same.
Edit: I found this on xitter: https://x.com/YourAnonFrench_/status/1912099907038572980
Edit: someone else linked a better post alternative: https://bsky.app/profile/youranoncentral.bsky.social/post/3lmvbpc66qc2j
Direct link is above to mediafire

I would have gone for some Baby Lasagna instead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTBrVNZtnys
And nothing happened.
I'd download this but I'm worried it could also contain some form of advanced spyware, and my "security computer" needs a new screen cable at the moment.
That’s a good point. Better get a giant ass hard drive array going and connect it to something disposable, like an pi.
oh damn I've been doxxed
I knew it
smdh this is why I only accept Xi bucks
they should release magnets of chunks of the data
Site doesn't load for me and I can't find any other sources yet. Interesting to see what comes out of this, but I won't be downloading 10tb myself to find out, tempting as it may be
Its only 18GB compressed, nothing in Trump folder. 2 CMD prompt outputs of possible vulnerabilities, nothing concrete at all
Links directly to mediafire are posted above
Damn, sounds like not much actually going on then. 18gb is manageable though, I'll have a look. Thanks!
Has anyone actually opened said data yet?
I downloaded it, but am at work now. Nothing in Trump folder 2 CMD prompt outputs of possible vulnerabilities, nothing concrete at all
thats all under "Leaked Data of Donald Trump"
I see a lot of screenshots, but is there any useful/damning information in the leaks?
Day late and dollar short. That info serves no purpose in today's environment
Russian glaziers rubbing their hands together right now
That's a good load of data for some training of a "truth² AI"
Site is getting rammed and won't load for me. I guess if there's anything substantial I'll hear about it soon enough.
Hell yeah dude
