A US nuclear lab working on next-generation nuclear power plants, light water reactors, and robotics was hacked by a group of self-proclaimed “gay furry hackers.”

The following report is by ZeroHedge:

On Monday, the hacktivist group SiegedSec posted on social media platform X that it “breached the INL (Idaho National Laboratory) divulging thousands of data points such as – full name, date of birth, email address, phone number, social security number, address, employment info and more :3.” 

On Telegram, SiegedSec posted what appears to be proof of the data breach at INL. 

INL media spokesperson Lori McNamara confirmed to local media EastIdahoNews that federal agencies are investigating the breach. 

Earlier this morning [Monday], Idaho National Laboratory determined that it was the target of a cybersecurity data breach, affecting the servers supporting its Oracle HCM system, which supports its Human Resources applications. INL has taken immediate action to protect employee data.

INL has been in touch with federal law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security’s Cyber Security and Infrastructure Security Agency, to investigate the extent of data impacted in this incident.

McNamara said. 

So, who exactly are these hackers?

There are furries in the US military. 

SiegedSec also hacked NATO last month, leaking a cache of documents online. The group said the attack had “nothing to do with the war between Russia and Ukraine” and said it was “a retaliation against the countries of NATO for their attacks on human rights.”

It remains unclear what motivated the gay furry hackers to attack INL.


AUTHOR COMMENTARY

In all likelihood these so-called “furries” are probably just an alias to troll people with, but you never know these days I guess. I mainly mention this because it once again demonstrates the fragility of all this stuff, and how hackable everything has become, including very critical and top secret materials.

[8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

  • “Gay Furry Hackers” I literally had to splash water on my face to wake myself up and make sure I wasn’t still goofy with sleep and see if I was reading that right.
    Absolute total insanity!

    By the way, Happy Thanksgiving!
