After claiming to break into a database belonging to The Heritage Foundation, and then leaking 2GB of files belonging to the ultra-conservative think tank, the hacktivist crew SiegedSec claims to have disbanded.
According to a message on the group’s Telegram channel, they had already planned to exit the scene this week.
We’d like to point out Howell retweeted parts of the purported conversation without denying he said the things he’s quoted as saying.
The Signal exchange, according to SiegedSec, started with Howell asking what the hacktivists were “seeking or threatening.”
They are still gay furry hactivists. I’m sure another worthy cause will come along for the likes of Furnonymous…
Not a furry but I can get behind some FuzzSec

My dyslexia mixed the fu and the ha on my first read of the title.
Either way, bears may have been involved.
The article uses a thumbnail that does not appear in the article itself, so it doesn’t have any captions or other information around it. (Also possible that being on mobile or using a plethora of content blockers made that not appear for me, so don’t hurt me.) Pair that with, you know, not really knowing anything about SiegedSec, and I have no clue if the photos used here, or even in other articles depicts the fursonas of the hackers.
But I mean, furries are usually all in on their fursonas. Many who have splurged for a suit are usually pretty particular about specific details to ensure that their suit is custom to them. It’s basically their identity. It’s the equivalent of newspapers using photos of you to represent someone else, because one thing about you is similar.
If newspapers are grabbing random furry pictures to accompany these articles, can you imagine the horror and, well, amusement that would occur if some random furry starts becoming recognized as the guy who hacked the Heritage Foundation, when they had absolutely nothing to do with it?(I know, completely random thought, but that’s what this brain do.)
I had pinned my hopes on them saving democracy, but I guess it’s back to Joe
Well, fuck… Still doomed, then 😮💨

They did what they needed to do so.
John Brown’s body lies a-mouldering in the grave
His soul is marching on.
SiegedSec is dead. The idea is not.
