Yesterday a hacktivist group called Nullbulge claimed responsibility for leaking roughly 1.2 terabytes of information from Disney’s internal communications run through Slack.
According to the data, they accessed Disney’s company chat system, which includes messages from employees at ESPN, Hulu, and Disney+.
The group of hackers said they are upset with how Disney handled its negotiations with artists last year, how it uses AI, and its customers. This is according to a statement the group sent to The Wall Street Journal.
According to The Wall Street Journal, the data includes conversations from Disney employees about corporate website maintenance, software development, assessments of potential new employees, and even personal data like photos of employee’ dogs.
The group also recently posted information about Disneyland Paris, which included revenue data.
The posts claim to have information from almost 10,000 channels, including information on unreleased projects, but The Wall Street Journal said it couldn’t immediately verify these claims. This could include new details of Disney’s partnership streaming service to bring its live sports networks as their own streaming service with FOX and Warner Bros. Discovery. We could even possibly find out more about ESPN’s new streaming service—all things Disney would likely not want published at this time.
