Andrew Torba / Gab (Gab.com / Gab.ai) / Dissenter (dissenter.com) - An incompetent captain sinking millions of other people's dollars.

Andrew is a true exceptional individual.

We should have a betting pool on how long it'll take for the divorce. cover2.jpg

I'm pretty sure they have fixed the SQL vulnerability already. Torba needs to calm down.

I can already hear the freaks at 'Getting Racists Fired' creaming their shorts, and this retard is posting like a 13 year old on a competing site.
I don't think anyone is gonna get fired LOL. Unless they're dumb enough to use their Personal Email or give their Phone Number for optional Two-Factor Authentication

This is what the left has wanted for years. What are the odds this hack leads to Gab crashing down and being reduced to nothing?
I think Gab will be fine. There are thousands of Skilled Anons that can help them audit their code for free.

Gab was doing pretty well before the hack. Gab TV, even though uploading is restricted to Gab Pro Members, is one of the only Youtube Alternatives that allow HD 1080P Uploads

They only let employees alter code, and speaking personally, when I've told them about exploits they lie about fixing them. I caught wind that they were about to be hacked days before and they told me they had already taken care of it.

What they should do is fully open contributions, and this will never happen again. But Rob always hated doing that, and they're moving in the opposite direction. Expect nothing but more spaghetti.

Gab TV is great in its basic function and topical layout. It's like 4chan for videos, and I enjoyed it for the time I used it. But who's to say at this point that it's not just another vector? I don't trust any of it now and I won't be using it. Peertube has lower encode standards by default but it's further along in development, is open source, and has live streaming. Idrc about federated video hosting but that still more than tips the scales away from Gab for me.

I have zero sympathy for arrogant retards who get told in advance of an exploit and smugly refuse to do anything about it. They get exactly what they fucking deserve.

Looks like the Hack Includes User Email Addresses

The Private Groups are tiny and don't seem controversial at all.

It's strange that they don't include IP's. You can see them from the admin panel. Maybe Gab chose not to store it, good on them.

This hack has proven that for all their bullshit they're trying to run a privacy-respecting service, at least.
 
He really reactivated his Twitter just to bitch about getting hacked by troons and instead of hunkering down and fixing it he's doubling down on being an idiot about the situation lol. This has been at least the third time he self imposed deactivation to focus on Gab then quickly reactivating once something spicy happens.

His account has been active for weeks. He's always temporarily deactivating and deleting. Probably to prevent archiving.
