A self-proclaimed data enthusiast calling themselves ‘ThinkingOne’ has made a huge database containing 201 million pieces of user data from X freely available. The data is said to have come from two previous leaks and includes email addresses, locations and profile data of users of the social media platform.
this leak has proven in the past to be fatally dangerous to anonymous activists fighting tyrant governments all around the world. let’s hope it does not fall into the wrong hands
Imagine being stupid enough to use x.com for your activism 🙄
If you use anything but TOR together with spoofed VPNs for “activism” against a government that would jail/kill you, you are being reckless.
If you use X for your activism, you’re not an activist you’re a fed honeypot.
It fell into the wrong hands 3 years ago. If those people failed to recognize the danger they put themselves in by continuing to use the platform they are shit out of luck cause Musk will never take responsibility.
Thoughts and prayers
lmaoooo
He sent his tech bros in to fix the database. Now they’ll use the same skills to fix the SS databases.
Fucking heros
Quick everyone do their banking on it!
Someone should check the email and phone number of Adrian Dittman to see if they match Elon’s. Idiots can argue that it isn’t Elon despite speech pattern evidence, but it’s harder to argue when both of them share the same identifying info.
I thought he fessed up to that
Who is/was Adrian Dittman? Out of the loop of Twitter drama.
Someone Musk made up to simply glaze himself on twitter.
So his version of HitlerPig’s John Baron?
i am pretty sure Dittman is a real person https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/05/bad-news-for-adrian-dittman-elon-musk-truthers/
Yeah, I know there was a story in that Spectator magazine. I’m still not sold. Dittman said way too many stupid things that point to him being Elon.
That’s like, 400 actual non-bot accounts. Nobody is safe anymore!
So what is that, like 6 or 7 people?
It also includes the people that deleted their Twitter accounts following the acquisition. I’m one of those people and I’m especially annoyed because I only used that blasted app only to register to some giveaways when I was in middle school. I have since discontinued that email account, but still.
Or this could be publicity stunt “look how many users we have, many users, beutifull users like never before, nobody knew how many users as there”.
lol
I still can’t believe Xerox still has that many users
How many of them are Elmo’s alt-accounts?
Yes
In July 2022, Twitter confirmed that someone had exploited the vulnerability before it could be fixed. “After reviewing a sample of the data offered for sale, we confirmed that a malicious party had taken advantage of the problem before it was addressed,” Twitter stated at the time.
lol
Anyone know where these files where originally posted?
