    Bethesda hacked, fifteen terabytes of in-house shock porn and five .doc files about to hit the internet.

    What if they decide to hit the Codex next? Is the Codex secure?

    Good luck when your Firefox profile gets lost/corrupted.

    You can backup your paswords and all that.

    Anyway, it's on.

    http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/6467131 ... ernal_data

    They didn't release Brink user info, downloading now.

    Edit: ffs, it's just some random database logs, I have no idea if anything lulzy can be extracted from that :?

    Yeah - but in linux they actually use a keyring, ie: it's not in the firefox profile.

    It also has passwords to actually important things, like google code accounts saved by netbeans and wifi passwords.

    I've never had a forum account with them, so right there: whatever.

    Still though, I'm starting to find all of this hacking stuff more than a little tedious. None of these guys really seem to be in it for anything since the whole Sony thing kicked off. I'm not sure that I get the point of hacking Bethsoft and only releasing random database crap.

    At first I thought that they were bros but now they're being /b/tards. They attacked EvE, Minecraft and League of Legends sites and that's not cool, at least Beth and Escapist deserved some of this trolling.

    They hit EvE quite bad, seems that account information was compromised so they still aren't up.

    Bunch of Beth fanboys :/

  21. So did they release the Bethesda forum account names and passwords?
