Anonymous Hackers Expose Putin’s Secret Data—Publish Trump File
In a recent hacking operation, the group Anonymous claimed to have exposed sensitive information about Russian President Vladimir Putin and other high-profile individuals. The hack allegedly uncovered data on businesses operating in Russia, all Kremlin assets in the West, pro-Russian officials, Donald Trump, and more.
However, cyber experts are skeptical of the claims, with many suggesting that the leaked data is not as exciting or secret as initially reported. According to Cybernews, “from what files have been examined so far, the overall consensus seems to be that the leaked info is simply not that exciting, and apparently not that secret.”
It appears that some of the information in the leak could be useful for Ukraine’s armed forces, but little surprise can be taken in learning that Russian officials are allegedly corrupt or have deep ties to the West.
Emma Best from DDOSecrets issued a scathing riposte to Anonymous, stating, “Claims impossible data without explanation. Releases less than 2% of what they say they have. Data looks like a scrape of existing releases.”
The hacking operation has generated some headlines and will likely continue to do so, but it is unclear what information the leak actually contains.
