What's the point? 4chan seems like such a low value target.
A bunch of chuds got angry that they were banned because they went brigading against LGBTQ+ folk.
This was the end result
Ah yes, there's no honor amongst thieves.
By my understanding, 4chan left themselves vulnerable which, given the circles they foster, means they were going to be compromised. No fear of reprisal or consequence for it either. Not like when attacking a major corporation or government.
i'm fairly certain there are more than likely a LOT of politicians on there with very questionable posting records who would probably be on a sex offender registry if it got out.
If they're Republican it won't matter.
Badge of Honor for them, probably.
For the lulz!
For the LULZ obviously.
For revenge
The Elon thing is possible, and there's a screenshot in the Reddit thread that's kinda convincing, but I'm still not bought in.
Tinfoil hat brain is wondering if there's something in there someone's supposed to find but 😂 🤷🏻
