Hey I haven’t been able to get into the site for ProleWiki, is there anything going on that people know is happening?
The site got hacked. The hackers were just regular hackers and not politically motivated. They used some vulnerability in Mediawiki.
They are putting thought into the architecture which is why reinstating the time is taking time. Data wasn’t lost because they had backups.
Hope that helps.
Holy shit, I didn’t know that. I just looked at the ProleWiki community and it never mentioned hacking.
Okay, good to hear.
did they try to blackmail or some shit or was it just for fun afayk?
They put up a page that masqueraded as a cloudflare bot check page but asked the user to run a powershell script in the terminal which would install malware crypto/info stealer etc.
Ah, so opportunists basically.
I mean, they could be social democrats, yeah, but damn, no need to put them so low, they’re just shitty hackers, not genocide allowers
