An established cybercrime group with a track record of attacking political targets posted on Tuesday roughly two gigabytes of data from the Heritage Foundation, a prominent conservative think tank based in Washington, D.C.
Self-described “gay furry hackers,” SiegedSec said it released the data in response to Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, a set of proposals that aim to give Donald Trump a set of ready-made policies to implement if he wins this fall’s election.
The data includes the “full names, email addresses, passwords, and usernames” of people associating with Heritage, vio said, including users with U.S. government email addresses.
The attack was carried out as part of SiegedSec’s “OpTransRights,” campaign, which has previously included the defacement of government websites and data theft from states either considering or implementing anti-abortion or anti-trans legislation.
SiegedSec, which emerged on Telegram in April 2022, has also targeted various NATO portals, the city of Fort Worth and a company involved in the monitoring of offshore oil and gas facilities.
lmao, furries literally doing more about Project 2025 than Democrats.
Your daily reminder that all enemies of the people have names and addresses!
Furry hackers are so fucking cool. Anyone have a link to the data?
its on their telegram
Here’s the relevant message:
final hack~
over the past 7 days, we have released a hack every day, from NATO to Israel, we attacked many. we have one more gift for you all, its one minute till midnight so i’ll start the show~
we hacked The Heritage Foundation :3 (holy moly!!!) The Heritage Foundation is a conservative think tank in America, among the most influential public policy organizations. this organization is responsible for leading Project 2025, an authoritarian Christian nationalist plan to reform the United States government.
Project 2025 threatens the rights of abortion healthcare and LGBTQ+ communities in particular. so of course, we won’t stand for that! -
we have gained access to The Heritage Foundation’s database, with user data, logs, and other juicy info :D we also accessed 200GB+ of other, mostly useless, files in their server. these useless files wont be leaked.
mew mew i wonder what would happen if we leaked the passwords, email addresses, and full names of every user :3 every US government employee, even the Heritage president Kevin Roberts.
be gay do crime~

thank you to verty for greatly helping with this hack!
dear heritage foundation,
get in touch with us! we will make fun of you endlessly :3

love, gay furry hackers <3
#OpTransRights
thank you everyone who has supported us. we have an important announcement coming soon.
My ass reinstalling dbeaver for some unknown reason…
E: I glanced at it in a text editor but the file is so big it crashed. It has info from as far back as at least 2008. User’s seemingly IRL names, email addresses, IP addresses, and at least states they are in(as stated in the OP). Pretty fun stuff. I might actually try and get dbeaver set up for it later because it’s hard to parse in plain text.
Those are hashed passwords. None of this is really immediately useful information as far as I can tell… The bulk of the data is automated stuff from WP plugins like spam filtering and such.
I wonder if they’re salted.
Gamers need to bust out those fancy GPUs and start running hashcat. A lot of these reactionaries are probably using shit passwords, I bet a bunch can be cracked with dictionary attacks.
Shame if somehow it leaked via Torrents. In other news, I was firing up my Torrent seedbox…
EDIT: Alright sickos just got back at my computer and made the torrent magnet link

I may be able to periodically seed to if needed. I sometimes remember to turn my VPN on lol…
I run my torrents without a VPN like the

No VPN? I got a slap on the hand a few times for pirating so canceled my streaming services and used the money saved on a VPN lol.I threw the magnet link into Transmission but it’s not even pulling the metadata. I usually use .torrent files so maybe I am doing something wrong?
Ill look into my box tonight to see if things are working. I might need to kick the firewall or something.
EDIT: Fixed the magnet link with announce urls, which should help

I’ve been hearing about gay furry hacker groups for years and they ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS sound based.
Why are so many of these idiots using hideously outdated web browsers?
The amount of Windows XP and Windows Vista user agents is outstanding. There’s even a few people using PPC based Macs.
logging into my server to talk with my fellow 
There’s even a few people using PPC based Macs.
They still run modern OpenBSD (and maybe Linux) well, not that any of these people do that lol. My PC laptop broke recently and all I have for mobile stuff is an old Powerbook now (very nice machines tbh)
That being said, compiling Firefox or Chrom{e,ium} is now an impossible task on any machine with less than 4 GB of RAM
. Will have to see if I can get Firefox to build in an emulator and run that on a real machine, assuming all the Rust/LLVM infrastructure even works on PowerPC cuz no one cares anymore :(There is (or was) a fork of Firefox with a bunch of security patches back ported to it for Mac OS 10.4. Lemmy won’t work on it, but most non PWA/insane javascript based websites will.
RIP TenFourFox :(
Honestly so impressive they supported it as long as they did, web browsers are ridiculously complicated. Must have been a ton of work to keep it running on ancient PowerPC Mac OS X
Are we supposed to build our own Firefoxes from source?
Only if no one posts Firefox binaries for your weird operating system and computer architecture anymore/ever
Ohhhhhhhhh okay!!! Rip btw =)
Yehhh :(
My Powerbook is still the most nicely built laptop I have ever had and I got it for like 20$ on Ebay
Not to mention the cool as hell hardware and Open Firmware implementation (why couldn’t we get Open Firmware everywhere instead of UEFI
or even worse… U-Boot)If you’re not familiar, Open Firmware is like a PC BIOS with a full text-based programming environment embedded in it
You can even write drivers in it and have the operating system use those
Yo what’s Open Firmware? When would Apple have something open, yeah I did not know that was a thing, that sounds like it slaps. What made Apple adopt this???
Open Firmware is a specification for software built into your computer that brings all the hardware up and boots your operating system. On PCs, there was/is something analogous called the BIOS but Intel has made something more modern called UEFI (which I don’t know too much about tbh)
What makes Open Firmware so cool is you get a full Forth programming environment (stack-based programming language) to work with within moments of turning on your computer which makes it really versatile. I’m not too sure of the exact history but when Apple, IBM, Motorola were developing the PowerPC architecture in the 90s and they needed some kind of standard software to bring up their computers they decided on an Open Firmware implementation
Maybe I should write a longer post about it
And brb, made plans to
with friend
Wow imagine actually doing something about project 2025 instead of just telling people to vote for a genocidal man with dementia who does nothing about it. Imagine that. Weird thing to do.
Learn to hack, learn to quadcopter.
Sometimes the post-cyberpunk dystopia throws up some cool stuff.
I actually prefer some of the revolutionary aesthetic and culture of our actual existing cyberpunk dystopia as compared to the very specific punk inspired aesthetic of 80s and 90s cyberpunk.

We love our gay furry hackers! 
We really do!
Also…where is the data dump? Need to save it for … archival and “research” purposes.
I may or may not have created a torrent of the dump.

Imagine thinking association w Heritage is embarrassing and not a silver bullet on reactionary CVs.
