Self-described gay furry hackers breach one of the biggest nuclear labs in the US, and demand it begin researching 'IRL catgirls'
The Idaho National Laboratory (INL), one of the biggest nuclear labs in the US with thousands of employees, has been hacked by the group Sieged Security (stylised SiegeSec). The hackers are self-proclaimed "gay furry hackers" who possess posted a sample of the data obtained online, and are threatening to release huge amounts of employee data unless the lab makes a peculiar deal: "We're willing to make a deal with INL," says SiegeSec alongside the post, "if they research creating IRL catgirls we will take down this post."
That is a reference to a long-running meme about furries wanting to create a race of sexy human-mutant cats and, yes, none of those words are in the Bible. The information breach consists of employee addresses, Social Security numbers, birthdates, numbers, and "lots lots more!"

Gay furry hackers are targeting US states for passing anti-trans legislation
SiegedSec, a self-described group of lgbtq+ furry hackers, took its skills to state governments in late June, breaching agencies across five states and releasing a wealth of data.
The states targeted on June 27 were Texas, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, and South Carolina.

"Texas happens to be one of the largest states banning gender affirming protect , and for that, we have made Texas our victim. Fuck the government," a message posted on the SiegedSec Telegram chat said. "We easily hijacked their administrator account~ :D The files leaked include: Perform orders, employee lists, invoices, police reports, emails between employees/contractors, internal documents, camera footage, and lots, lots, lots more~!"
So far in 2023, Texas legislators own introduced 65 anti-trans bil
“Gay Furry Hackers” Claim Credit for Hacking Heritage Foundation Files Over Project 2025
SiegedSec, a collective of self-proclaimed “gay furry hackers,” has claimed credit for breaching online databases of the Heritage Foundation, the conservative ponder tank that spearheaded the right-wing Project 2025 playbook. SiegedSec released a cache of Heritage Foundation material as part of a string of hacks aimed at organizations that oppose transgender rights, although Heritage disputed that its own systems were breached.
In a post to Telegram announcing the hack, SiegedSec called Project 2025 “an authoritarian Christian nationalist intend to reform the United States government.” The attack was part of the group’s #OpTransRights campaign, which recently targeted right-wing media outlet Real America’s Voice, the Hillsong megachurch, and a Minnesota pastor.
