Of all thinks, why the fuck attack Blender!?
What, is Autodesk pissed at them for making an industry grade tool for free? I mean… I can’t think of any reason why there’d be a motivation to attack Blender.

Yay let’s give the attackers press coverage. They’re slapping each other on the back saying “Look! We made The Verge!”

I mean The Verge will report on literally anything these days… the bar isn’t exactly high.

Attacking the Blender foundation is honestly a new low. There is no “lulz” and nothing to gain

This is most likely a demo from someone selling access to their botnet.
