Perpetrators are threatening to expose nearly 1TB of celebrities' private data unless Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks pays a Bitcoin ransom.
I could wax poetic about how cheap companies are about hiring cybertalent and how it's continually biting them in the ass, but you're not interested in that.
The Firm handles the the private legal affairs of
Musicians/Actors/Comedians: Elton John, David Letterman, Robert DeNiro, Christina Aguilera, Barbra Streisand, and Madonna.
Companies include Facebook (how fucking ironic), Activision, iHeartMedia, IMAX, Sony, HBO, and Vice Media.
Athletes include LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Sloane Stephens, and Colin Kaepernick
The hackers say they will release the data in 9 staggered attempts, so look forward to that when you're on week 13 of quarantine I guess 😒
