Disney Hacked: Group Claims to Have Trove of Data, Company Investigating

The hacktivist group 'Nullbulge' is claiming responsibility for the hack, which includes a trove of data apparently taken from internal Slack channels.

In may, Ticketmaster owner Live Nation said that it had been the victim of an attack, with “criminal threat actors” selling user data on the dark web. And earlier this month AT&T disclosed an astonishing incident in which “nearly all” of its wireless customers had their call and text records obtained (though importantly the content of the messages was not breached). In the case of Nullbulge, the hacktivist group told The Wall Street Journal it targeted Disney “due to how it handles artist contracts, its approach to AI, and it’s [sic] pretty blatant disregard for the consumer.”
