That’s why they’re so mad. They didn’t just copy it; they deleted it after. Monsters!
3000 files seems like an arbitary amount. Nothing's preventing you from creating a file for each passing millisecond.
2999 of them are robot.txt files, and one is goatse.jpg.
Awww no luv for my girl tubgirl?
I had forgotten about that one damn it

Yeah, without any frame of reference, it's just a random, useless number.
so a group of furry hackers is a cabal, not like a pack or a litter or something
"FBI Bags Litter of Hacker Furries"
Don't feed the fetish
OwO
Surely it would be less redundant to just say 'hackers'
Relevant XKCD
Every time someone posts a relevant XKCD comic as a response to something, I hate humanity just a little bit less.
I salute you, internet stranger.
That SHOULD be a shocking headline but... have any awareness of the various hacker orgs out there and this doesn't even move the needle.
That said: I always have mixed thoughts when it comes to hacks like this. Because governments and the like do a lot of REALLY heinous shit and getting awareness of the particularly fucked up stuff is important.
But hacker orgs tend to not work with journalists who understand how to vet and redact things. So you might get something "juicy" and then a LOT of information that the general public will never read but OTHER organizations will and will use to endanger people who actually aren't being monsters (or are possibly being coerced into supporting occupation forces).

Did you think Nato would store nukular codes on their Neocities website?
nukular
Chelsea Manning was a prime example of this.
I personally blame that more on wikileaks and "The Media"
Wikileaks was very much put forward as paragons of journalism and so forth. And ignoring the editorialized headlines for a lot of their "leaks" (and I think a few were determined to be outright intentionally mislabeling footage?), they very much were not "journalists", They basically just put anything and everything they were given online. Whether it is footage of US soldiers committing war crimes or the secret handshake of a sorority (seriously...). They did a lot of good and a LOT of bad.
She... probably should have done a better job of pre-filtering what she provided. But she also, likely, thought she was giving a CNN journalist the information rather than the equivalent of a kid on reddit.
What a relief, I'd hate to think those files ended up in the wrong ~~paws~~ hands.
Based and furpilled
Can the gay furries get the alien files next?
the group says it's gotten into the government web portal for the South African OR Tambo district
As a South African, that's not much of an accomplishment
Oh no, did the mass Activation of everyone yesterday contribute to this?
3000 stolen files of gay furry hackers
Yes that is quite the headline for sure.
Holy shit, I mean hackers are bad but gay furry hackers...that's crossing the line.
Can we start a Legion of Gay Fury Hackers (₲ay͎₣ur)
We live in the dumbest timeline.
You mean the bettest timeline, right?
I meant what I said.
Guy looks like Harrison Ford’s accountant brother.
