Breach of internet hate ISP exposes millions of right wing names, credit card #s, ssns, addresses, phone numbers, etc

[Otis Mayfield]

The breach of Epik’s internal records has cast a spotlight on a long-hidden corner of the Internet’s underworld, and researchers expect it could take months before they can process the full cache — the equivalent of tens of millions of pages. Many are digging for information on who owns and administers extremist domains about which little was previously known.

Epik, based outside Seattle, said in a data-breach notice filed with Maine’s attorney general last week that 110,000 people had been affected nationwide by having their financial account and credit card numbers, passwords, and security codes exposed. An earlier data-breach letter from the company, filed to comply with Montana law, was signed by the “Epic Security Team,” misspelling the company’s name. An Epik spokesperson said it was a simple typo.

Heidi Beirich, a veteran researcher of hate and extremism, said she is used to spending weeks or months doing “the detective work” trying to decipher who is behind a single extremist domain. The Epik data set, she said, “is like somebody has just handed you all the detective work — the names, the people behind the accounts.”

Fallout begins for far-right trolls who trusted Epik to keep their identities secret

"This is like the mother of all data lodes because Epik was at the center of so many of the extremist websites and organizations."

Well, while I smile at the members of Alt-Right Nation having their identities exposed, it just goes to show that the quest to hack and extort money...has no political ideological lines.

Rightwingers aren't to smart. They couldn't build the internet or websites. They are not capable of inventing or science & sure as hell can't stop hackers.

 

[Rogue AI]

Cheering for illegal activities, liberals are truly no longer a part of civilized society. That's OK, these things cut both ways, and when it does liberals will be howling.

 

[Dogmaphobe]

Who, exactly is defining "Hate and extremism"?

If Ilhan Omar, ANTIFA or BLM are not on the list, it really isn't actually about hate and extremism, but just political hackery.
