Nuclear Ruleactor lab hit by gay furry hackers

There's better targets out there than researchers, don't you think?

They are committing acts of terrorism in the hopes of getting genetically engineered cat girls. I'm not about to start considering them intelligent.
- I doubt they actually believe there's a chance of that. My guess is they did it for fun, the "ransom demand" is an international-terror-level joke.
- I think they’re heroes to this country
- They need to release the info that they hacked it, it needs to reach as big of an audience as possible. Goal would be to scare people even further away from nuclear. Gay furry hackers demanding cat ears is about as clickbaity as possible, and will reach everyone.
- it's a cover for a foreign intelligence agency, likely China or Russia.. there's no reason to believe anything they say about themselves..
If this hacker group got in, then it’s extremely likely that other state sponsored hacker groups got in too (and they’re not making it public). If you work with highly sensitive information, then you should be responsible and make sure no one is getting in. I’m sorry, but it is how it is. Be glad these people got in now and are bringing it into the public eye. We should be much more responsible with these things and the public should expect AND demand responsibility from every single state institution working with highly sensitive data. I worked in cybersec.
- This may be the way now, since in the late aughts / early 2010s large institutions started reporting white hats for cybercrime and suing them rather pay the vulnerability bounty, creating a golden age of black hatring circa 2015 that Russian and Chinese states exploited.
  
  This is what we get for NSA turning into a SIGINT service rather than a COMSEC service. The US State willfully made this bed with pre-infected sheets.

Nuking a reactor lab just because it got hacked seems like the most American thing to do...

Is what I wanted to comment until I found out they didn't mean the action of nuking something but nuke as an abbreviation of nuclear... That wording boi :')

Okay, that's fucked going after the researchers. On the other paw, if we get catpeople out of this I may still forgive them :3

(Of course that demand is BS, though. Bleh!)

This is some NotTheOnion level of article

If those were cod fans they would demand humans that are extremely powerful and can take a 5 story building drop unharmed
