A possible second FA note leak

[ColonThree]

Apparently some e-mails have been sent around (some from Arcturus) enclosing a QR code.



It encodes the following text:

July 4th, 2012: Anonymous splinter group Murrnonymous releases 2nd FA note leak, blames administration for not fixing broken software full of 0-days, also McDonalds price hike on dblchzbrgrs.

Aside from a thread on lulz.net, I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else (Google just brings up the expired thread), with just 2 days left. Has anyone else seen this around, or have any more info on it?

okay past that, i haven't heard anything about this other than a couple posts on a lulz thread. and arcturus isn't exactly the most reputable source to get information from. that might just be like, my opinion though.

You would think people involved in this would want the word out, but maybe they will make a big deal on the 4th or something. We can always hope for the best though.

I would tend to agree, except that you know what other recent events are repeating themselves from two years ago? Zaush probably raped someone at Anthrocon 2012 and it's blowing up in his face (again). The hackers stated last time (at least through third-party intermediaries), that Zaush's behavior (and Dragoneer's malicious inaction in dealing with it) was a big part of their motive.

Re: prison, it's only a matter of time before charges get pressed. He might not go to prison, but he will show up on the sex offender registry, at least! Given the right circumstance, someone will follow through and press charges. His chances of getting away with rape decrease each time this happens. It's just a shame that between now and whenever that happens, some of furry's biggest names will have been complicit in allowing a rapist to run wild in the fandom; every victim will have become a victim unnecessarily — but since the fandom leadership looked the other way, lives will be (and have been) ruined.

I would think that, following the last note leak, people wouldn't be willing to trust FA notes as a confidential communications system anymore... But then again, furries...

But why would they release a bunch of notes unless something interesting came up though.

Dude, have you seen any of these Anonymous leaks? They do it because they can. They live in some warped version of the "V for Vendetta" movie where dumping someone's entire hard drive onto the Pirate Bay is a noble act of valor and has no unintended consequences whatsoever.

So no, there doesn't have to be "something".

I just don't think these people are affiliated with anonymous other than the name, so maybe they found some good drama. Once again though, I guess we'll find out soon enough.

I half expect nothing to happen, and the half of me that expects something to happen is further split in half - we'll either get more notes from the original leaks (FA has always maintained 40 accounts were accessed, and far less than that was released) or somehow someone got in again.

The last leak strategically targeted functionaries and populars, so if this one goes down along the same lines (provided something goes down at all) there's at least the possibility skeletons get pulled out of closets.

Hate to rain on the parade here^* but I'm pretty sure this is just Arcturus pulling some kind of "cunning stunt".


_{*no i don't}

[ColonThree]

And so nothing happened. Attention whoring, or a cunning plan to lure the FA staff into a false sense of secur... no, let's just say it was attention whoring.

Most likely. If you do a search on google for Murrnonymous https://www.google.com/search?q=murrnonymous some pastebin links come up, but they expired and I don't see any more evidence about anything. Oh well.

[ProvincialTwit]

Furries causing disappointment? stop the presses say it ain't so.

The "leak" was allegedly a dump of account names and what was supposedly a hashed password. The pastebin quickly disappeared, though, and nothing's been heard since.

So my guess is, it was fake.
