The headline itself made this worth sharing
3000 files seems like an arbitary amount. For us it would be 3 seconds of data for just one customer.

Don’t forget the lemons for your party.
GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Yeah, without any frame of reference, it’s just a random, useless number.

so a group of furry hackers is a cabal, not like a pack or a litter or something

Every time someone posts a relevant XKCD comic as a response to something, I hate humanity just a little bit less.
I salute you, internet stranger.

Surely it would be less redundant to just say ‘hacker’

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).

Chelsey 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…).
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.

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

What a relief, I’d hate to think those files ended up in the wrong

Holy shit, I mean hackers are bad but gay furry hackers…that’s crossing the line.

It looks like you’re attempting English. Could you put just a bit more effort into it? I’d love to understand what it is you’re saying.

Yet another reason to dislike furries, most unsurprising.
Knusper@feddit.de 7 months ago
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
Vii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 months ago
did a furry hurt you lmao that’s some silly reasoning
archonet@lemmy.world 7 months ago
No, just don’t like degenerates, that’s all. Pretty simple reason.
Kerfuffle@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
Pretty sure it’s mainly non-furry non-gay hackers that take down the majority of websites.
Render@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
It looks like someone got hacked by a furry.

Plot twist: they stole gay furry porn from nato servers.
