We are very confident that Reddit will not pay any money for their data,” BlackCat wrote. “We expect to leak the data.”
I like how they know they’re going to leak but using the threat to drum up media attention.
Even if Reddit did pay, what guarantie is there that they won’t just leak it anyways? Not paying any hackers ransom is system admin 101.
True. The damage is already done. The only value it can be extracted from it is to know the exploit that lead to the breach.
That’s not true with established ransomware gangs. They have a reputation to uphold, and as soon as there is a news article about them not paying up, all victims stop paying up.
So glad I never gave them my email address, personal info, or bought any awards.

Seems even there the users are the true value creators
Users aren’t of value for reddit dummy
80GB doesn’t seem like a lot, just some movies from this year?
Don’t threaten just leak.
Do it, pussies!
Says it’s all the information reddit harvests from its users plus juicy internal data
