This item goes back a few weeks, but its moral is still relevant. The hacking group SiegedSec, a group describing themselves as “gay furry hackers,” succeeded in hacking the nuclear research hub Idaho National Laboratory (INL). They did not apparently do anything to cause a nuclear incident, but accessed employee data. The groups demanded: “We're willing to make a deal with INL. If they research creating irl catgirls we will take down this post.” That does not make much sense, but presumably it was not meant to. The group also hacked into NATO, leaking internal documents, as payback for human rights violations, presumably of the trans nature, but no-one is sure.
The question to be asked here is, if a group of gay furry hackers can do this, who else is out there, apart from state-based cyber-terrorists, thinking of ways to take down the grid, and even the internet? Today, millions could die due to some frantic fanatic working on a keyboard.
