Do we know how damaging the hack is yet? Vs how much is bluster?

This sounds like old scare site messages people would post on 4chan and shit. They make a fucking website that was some real obvious name of something obviously illegal. Try and get people to click it, or they would disguise the link as something innocent. They'd name sites shit like "americanchildporn .net" or something fucked up like that. All it would be is a single image of a federal seal and a big scare message about how your ip and address have been recorded and the police have been alerted and will be picking you up shortly.

This is dead ass what they sounded like. Had them for all kinds of random shit but drugs and porn where big ones.... God I feel fucking old thinking about that shit.

Skeptical tbh. If they have the names, why not broadcast them then and there? Seems more like disinfo meant to sow chaos.
