I guess their security turned out to be as fragile as their masculinity!
"University" is a pretty generous description.
For anyone not aware, the entire breach has been published by DDOSecrets and can be torrented by anyone.
For research and journalism purposes, of course.
Obxiously I get the joke in the name DDoSecrets, but it is funny that denial is the exact opposite of what they're doing.
Denying secrets?
If everyone on that list was closely monitored from here, probably the end of school shootings.
These hackers have fantastic values, and the effort they put into this made the world a slightly better place. Good on em.
(next on the block: Jordan Peterson's School for Very Logical Manbabies)
Boot camps for adults that don’t actually want to do any real work along with a get rich quick incel overtone. What a scam.
"incel" is key word here. utter trash.
Oohh, where can I find this list? My wife's ex is one of those sad little men who follows and recommends him everywhere
Hi mom I just enrolled in the university of a guy who traffics sex slaves and thinks all women should be one
My mom is maga so she would probably be proud
Oh shit, there’s a database of the easily influenced with expendable income?
Time to become a scammer and financially ruin the kind of dumb men who would fall for this?
The Daily Dot was provided with approximately 794,000 usernames for what are believed to be the site’s current and former members, as well as the contents of the platform’s 221 public and 395 private chat servers. [...] The Real World claims it currently has over 113,000 active users. If accurate, the site at minimum would generate upwards of $5,650,000 every month.
Jesus, why is this bullshit that large?
Idiots falling for authoritarian charisma is one of the oldest things on this planet.
Idiots falling for authoritarian charisma
so hot right now
I mean, that's about one moderately sized cities worth of people out of probably most of the world, since I assume they don't only serve US customers
Edit: for context the state of Nebraska, famously the least populous state in the union has about 1.9 million residents
I sometimes work for a guy who thinks women shouldn't be allowed to vote. He's genuinely kind, but not at all academic. It is entirely the fault of low-effort internet bullshit like this. It's actually very upsetting to see somebody poisoned by social media in real-time.

People like Andrew Tate deserve part of the blame for propagating this kind of message, sure. But your client who thinks women shouldn't be allowed to vote is a bad person, and his moral failing is entirely his own. He doesn't deserve pity because he's uneducated and falling for propaganda. He's a sexist piece of shit who thinks women deserve fewer rights than men. Don't make up excuses for him. He's a grown man with agency over himself. He chose his path.
I don't really believe in free will, so I take a different position to you regarding individual moral failings. He's obviously confused, and I'm glad I can offer the occasional course correction. If I didn't have compassion, that wouldn't be possible.
Group think and tribalism is very powerful. I used to be a Trump supporter and I remember thinking about how women were more likely to vote for progressive candidates with the conclusion that perhaps they shouldn't be doing that. I now very deeply regret being part of that and I'm so grateful I broke free of all that nonsense. Monkey see, monkey do is very true. That's why it's important that our leaders demonstrate good behavior and set a good example for everyone.
worried for all my favorite youtubers who signed up in order to expose how shit the content is lol. hope they used fake info.
Oh. My. Fucking. God.
That many people, actually signed up, and gave him money.
That's a lot of fucking Darwin awards.
He was streaming? Isn't he about to go to jail?
i thought he was already in jail tbh
800k users? How?
We also elected orange Hitler. AGAIN. Nothing surprises me anymore.
I know a big part of his scam is constantly hyping up artificial scarcity, and that if you ever stop paying you get permabanned. So it's possible a number of users might be just the same people but with glasses or fake mustaches, but it's still an outrageous number of people. Sad.
Pandering to male insecurity works.
See, this is what the Matt Gaetz hacker would do if they actually had it
A University a.k.a. "Buy this ebook to make money online!" and the contents are "Just resell this Ebook lol".
