Ominous...
 
I remember when hiro took over and had that thread for questions and feedback, all his replies to skepticism were retarded platitudes in broken english. While this outcome was eminently foreseeable I'm stunned how long it lasted considering he's exactly as he appeared.
Better to put it out of it's misery really. Whenever I feel nostalgia for the /tv/ lotr, house, harry potter, nolan, gordon ramsay etc. threads I just remember they've been recycling the same memes for literal decades now.
 
Of all the fucking possible hackers, the retarded soyfaggots did it? Does not look too good on 4chan, it seems like the phpmyadmin page was open to the public? I see no screenshots of actual server terminals, hinting that it was probably some sort of credential leak or a web-level vulnerability. I don't think the soyfaggots would be capable of anything more complex than an exploit of a known simple vulnerability. Too much attack surface, fucking 4chan got lazy over the years, I guess.
 
4chan is like a perpetualy suinking titanic. It is sinking, but perpetually, and not really... kinda floating broken up on the water, wanting to sink, some wretched force of hell preventing it from completely sinking, thus being in perpetual agony.

I mean, it's only humane for it to be put out of it's misery sooner or later, tough i doubt this will completely kill it

Personally I don't see 4chan being dead forever because of this but I think this might cause gook moot to finally just give up and try to sell it to someone else to fix and maintain.
If he allows public offers there’s honestly a pretty good chance that Elon will buy it. He desperately wants to be viewed as an epic kekistani memer and could obviously outbid everyone.

TL;DR the server was running an ancient OS that no one was updating. See https://kiwifarms.st/threads/4chan.37222/post-21102670
 
i just remembered something

Every janny and mod has to sign an NDA with 4chan. Just keep that in mind - everyone you speak to who knows about the backend before this hack is in breach of an NDA

all day in this thread ive been disrespecting that NDA and RA you can suck my cock - have fun pursuing me in a court from across the ocean while you're dealing with this shit fucker.

We can atleast bask in the tears which are 4trannies tears in the meantime while it's down.

Not releasing 4cuck pass users is peak Reddit from the leaker. I guess they fear the legal ramifications.
I mean a hack like this is obviously illegal even if they don’t release the pass users.

i expect something like this because soyteens are all technologically illiterate who probably don't even care about the datamining on the sharty
