Culture Hacker claims responsibility for replacing NYU’s website with apparent test scores, racial epithet - Reddit: "bad faith statistics"

A dark web user has claimed responsibility for briefly hacking New York University’s website Saturday, and replacing it with what appeared to be student test scores and an apparent racial epithet.

Instead of the usual images of college athletes and the Greenwich Village campus, the site instead featured a black background with green writing showing a message along with charts of what were purported to be SAT and ACT scores and GPAs for students in 2024, divided by race.

The site was reclaimed after approximately two hours, and back to normal by 12:54 p.m.

“On June 29 2023, racial affirmative action in college admissions was ruled illegal,” the female hacker’s message reads. “Computer N–gy Exploitation (CNE) reveals NYU continued anyway.”

The compromised site also featured downloadable files containing all of the hacked data.

It was unclear if the hacker, who goes by the name “@bestn–gy” on X, also gained unauthorized access to the university’s database.

“It’s literally just raw data from NYU’s own data warehouse,” the hacker explained in a post. “I just put in some bar graphs.”

It wasn’t the first time the hacker had gone after a university, bragging on X that they had previously taken over the University of Minnesota’s website in a 2023 incident.

During that hack, the Social Security numbers of more than 7 million students were exposed.



“There’s a lot more data from their data warehouse that could be analyzed further,” @bestn–gy wrote. “I only posted (redacted) bare minimum to prove they’re breaking the law.”

The alleged data showed Asian students performed better on ACT and SAT tests, but that white students finished with higher GPAs.

The phrase “TOP SECRET//NIGINT//NONORM” was placed at the top of the screen.

An NYU spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

I'm guessing Indians aren't included in the "Asians" category because otherwise that bell curve would look more like a heart rate monitor over toward one end.

That or the Dow Jones industrial average would have taked a nose dive as well with that bell curve and I don't think they include Pakistaneses, Persians/Iranians and other Middle Easterners either as "Asians".

Keep on nigging niggy

Asians are a specialist build that dump all their points into INT and nothing else. Total glass canons in most situations, but great with standardized testing.

 

[Hey Johnny Bravo]

Oh, look. The thing that isn't happening is happening and you're racist for noticing.

Don't black people feel patronized by this? That top-tier universities let them in with shitty scores just because they're black? I can imagine ratchet ass hood bitches smacking their lips and not caring, but how could a self-respecting black person see this and not be offended?

 

[Stoneheart]

I believe we all know what this means.

Well this looks like a real hack and not blackmailing people in charge, so maybe its a real women?

"Hey chuddie, you got numbers and statistics to back up your claim?"
"NOOOOO, NOT THOSE NUMBERS! STOP POSTING THINGS IN BAD FAITH, YOU LOW IQ RACIST!"

It definitely reminds me of how leftoids love to act smug and parade the fact that people with high IQs and educations tend to lean left -- but then as soon as you mention IQ by race and geography, suddenly they stop on a dime and screech about how IQ is pseudo-science or that it's socioeconomic factors as to why Africans and Indians are dumber than rocks.

You're right, white people find extremely creative ways to convince themselves a man is actually a woman, asians cannot possibly hope to compete.

You either die a stagnant bureaucratic rice farmer society or live long enough to see yourself become clown world.

Nobody is going to dispute that Asians are smarter and often work harder.

I will. Asians are fucking stupid if you have to make them do anything functional. They will absolutely kill themselves to master test scores, but this has more to do with asian culture being obsessed with face, and testing in their culture is just another element of that. If asian people were actually hyper-intelligent they wouldn't have tried to use samurai swords and kung-fu against machine guns, or conquered basically every single time they had to contend with white people outside of a math class.

A rare troonwaffen w.

I'm thinking that the "female hacker" claim is entirely based on them seeing the anime girl avatar and thinking "this person is obviously an anime girl" instead of "this person likes anime".

Japan beat the Russians, Vietnam beat the French and then the Americans, the Koreans were able to hold the Americans to a standstill, the Chinese had some notable victories against European powers and, if you're willing to go back in time there's the Mongol empire - remember how far west they managed to get? Many such examples. Sad.

I don't think any of that happened. Please don't drive until they invent surgery that makes your eyes normal-shaped.

Rly makes u think why Super Saiyans get blonde hair and blue eyes.

Nobody is going to dispute that Asians are smarter and often work harder. Sure, they have an extremely dumb underclass of peasants and poor people, but so do Whites. They are a race capable of building extremly complex and large empires and made many scientific discoveries. However, they're unfeeling bugmen who had little drive to improve the lives of the everyday person, and their intellectual and academic systems were far too focused on showing who could memorize what they already knew the best and coming up with ways to impress the Emperor or King or whatever instead of focusing on communication and the architecture of "science", building off of what they knew, and applying their knowledge to the betterment of society.

Jews are similar, no one can dispute that Jews are extremly intelligent (and therefore dangerous), but they're possessed by a pathological need to subvert and destroy Non-Jews and finding ways to legalese getting around rules and laws, even the ones in their own holy book.

Edit: I'll put it this way; Asian had vastly more potential and raw talent, but Europe was the one who, at the end of the day, actually delivered the goods.

The way I see it is chinks are superior engineering, but hwites are better at innovation.

The true niggers are people who don't start their bar charts at zero (or perhaps in this case, the minimum possible SAT score of 400).
The facts are damning enough without making it look like 1485 is three times more than 1289.
