wired.comFar-Right Platform Gab Has Been Hacked—Including Private DataThe transparency group DDoSecrets says it will make the 70 GB of passwords, private posts, and more available to researchers, journalists, and social scientists.

According to Summit News on Monday:

The hacking group calling itself ‘DDoSecrets’ says it has obtained 70-gigabytes of data, and has dubbed it “Gableaks”.
Among the “private posts, user profiles, hashed passwords for users, DMs, and plaintext passwords for groups,” is data for an account supposedly belonging to President Trump, as well as an account owned by Gab’s own CEO, Andrew Torba.
DDoSecrets cofounder Emma Best told Wired that the data “contains pretty much everything on Gab, including user data and private posts, everything someone needs to run a nearly complete analysis on Gab users and content.”
“It’s another gold mine of research for people looking at militias, neo-Nazis, the far right, QAnon and everything surrounding January 6,” Best claims.
Gab released a statement Gab announcing that it is “aware of a vulnerability” on its platform, claiming it has fixed it.

People on the internet are angry at a post made by the bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms on Sunday, remembering fallen agents in the 1993 siege in Waco, Texas and not mentioning at all the fact that children died in that action.
The tragic scenario came to a horrible end, when a fire started in the compound on April 19. The compound burned to the ground, and more than 70 residents were killed, with only nine of them escaping. Many of the victims were small children.
