In a significant data breach, self-proclaimed hacktivist group 'NullBulge' recently leaked over 1TB of information from Disney's internal Slack channels. The leaked data included login credentials, code, images, and details about unreleased projects, dating back to "at least 2019." The group now claims its motivation behind the leak is to "protect artists' rights and ensure fair compensation for their work." They targeted Disney over its handling of artist contracts, approach to AI, and perceived blatant disregard for consumers.
