FURAFFINITY GOT HACKED?! || Brief Furry Talk

[@LilacMonarch]

imagine being so soulless that you decide to break into a dead person's account

[@btc_rat]

It will be back within a month or two Edit: we are so back!

[@renji0]

you're the crying man from twitter!

[@btc_rat]

@@renji0 hmm?

[@ChesterRingtail]

Actually it will be about another day and will be back

[@Gabolia]

​@@ChesterRingtailyou mean it will be back in a few days?

[@ChesterRingtail]

@GaboliaGames yes, there was apost prior to this, but basically they said they were advised by their vendor, netsolcares would take 48 hrs to resolve, the issue is they are enabling the attacks by not intervening, ironically

[@jimcobbler3954]

YOUR ART HAS NOT BEEN LOST. To compare what has happened to the real world: Imagine the internet as a giant highway you can take from one computer to another. Servers are just really powerful computers, able to run websites (sort of like businesses on the highway) All of a websites data is stored on the server. Essentially, the server is everything a website is. It runs everything, from telling your computer what to display, to storing content you upload. There’s also a thing called the DNS. The DNS is like the driveway to the website. It connects all the servers to the open highway, through URLs. Essentially, the hackers stole the driveway to the FA server, and rerouted it to a different server. The FA server still exists though, and that’s where all your art is. Edit: THEY HAVE REGAINED CONTROL! THE TWITTER ACCOUNT IS BACK UP!! THE DNS REDIRECTS TO THE CORRECT WEBSITE! Looks like the site is going through maintenance. It’s very unlikely that the hackers gained access to the server, but I’m sure they have to check just in case. Wouldn’t want them to get back in after this all blows over.

[@Lionessqueen98]

I noticed that when I clicked onto the site it lead me to s strange site so I'm staying off of Furaffinity until further notice

[@j.e.s.m.4686]

Hopefully this gets resolve quickly and catch this hacker.

[@ChesterRingtail]

Srsly, we need some more armchair detectives on this I'm exhausted, 1st I trolled, I gaged reactions, I watched, and this is definitely one of them

[@Irobert1115HD]

@@ChesterRingtail actually the hacker was just some script kid that got lucky and, after their attempt of a phishing site was blocked and their attempt at turning the official FA twitter into a crypto scamm was foiled they redirected FA to kiwifarms and now the furrys and kiwifarms hunted them. hunted because the clown has been disowned by kiwifarms AND got doxxed. also he lost a lot of money in his stupidity.

[@Fusty_Skunk]

Furaffinity is back. They are back and running.

[@AoiUsagiOtoko]

i wasn't even fond of dragoneer as a person but his contributions to the fandom were huge. it's fucked up how he passed and it's EXTRA fucked up that people used that to...well, do this iirc the site is back under control but i'm still paranoid to check

[@baliebox4916]

this is why i played with sylvanian families, zoobles and littlest pet shops instead of becoming a brony back in the day because it prepared me for things like this

[@Gabolia]

Im crying, bro, i lost everything😭 All my arts, everything! Who is the idiot who would hack this site?! Who is that idiot?! I lost all my arts!😭 Edit: I got them back😮‍💨

[@RTMonitor]

Did you have your drawings saved in your local files such as your phone or a computer?

[@Gabolia]

​@@RTMonitorno...

[@QUEENOBSCURE]

Got to a local computer cyber Cafe, or local library..bring USB save your work they will have the computers ip not your home one.

[@jimcobbler3954]

It isn’t gone. The servers were not hacked, the DNS service was. Your art still exists, but you can’t access it because you can’t access the site. It’s pretty much like the hackers bought the driveway to the building and put a big roadblock over it. The building and everything inside still exists, but it can’t be accessed.

[@Irobert1115HD]

well the idiot redirected FA to kiwidarms after his phishing site attempt was fried and his attempt of turning the official FA twitter into a crypto scam. he lost a lot of wallet value and is now hated and hunted by two groups. and yes hes already doxxed.

[@AndreTheKangaroo_2726]

I was extremly upset when it happend on that spread and it was all over social media I could take their act no longer, this is an act of protest. Im just pissed!😡😡😡😡😡

[@lizardnuggets]

this wasn’t even long after dragoneer died

[@quincykearney9862]

This is so strange that after Dragoneer death someone just hijacked this site. I don't know about you guys but I have a feeling there's a civil war going on between the higher ups in Fur Affinity?

[@rosar.mp4]

Im not saying dont speculate. But you really shouldn't be posting things like this. Rumors spread like wildfire and the FA team already has enough on their plate atm.

[@quincykearney9862]

I'm not spraying rumor. Is it kind of strange that after Dragoneer death and then all of a sudden the site got hijacked?

[@TopSecretYoshi]

I knew something wasn’t right! I went to check on FA, only to discover that it’s a completely different site full of hateful comments. I was asking to myself "What the hell is this? What happened to FA?". I hope they catch that vicious hacker.

[@soldierua1368]

Will furaffinity return?

[@Kurisu-SanYT]

I hope not

[@nacroni]

yeah

[@jackalman2085]

No more furafinity

[@Spoinkus_thy_doinkus]

Most likely, on the discord they announced that they already got there twitter back

[@nolongerview]

@@Kurisu-SanYT Hello goddessbowser know as Loona Hellhound. Yeah it's I Rex Skunk. Queen Aurora is an Anti Furry not an Furry -_-

[@ElClandelCangrejo]

Dark times are coming 🚬🗿

[@sliggu9005]

long live the farms

[@darkwolfknight8293]

Hopefully this will be solved.

[@CaptArgo24]

Ruben sim and anti furries are happy, and celebrating right now.

[@Tftmt]

I only just learned of this when I opened furaffinity today myself to check out a particular artist I enjoy. I'm not a furry myself, but I feel for y'all heavily. First someone passes and now they think it's the perfect opportunity to pull something. I'm sorry for that.

[@nolongerview]

THEY ARE BACK AND RUUNNING YAY!

[@cyberpunk004]

this is the person who has the video showing the hacked twitter page in various states, i choose not to show the 18+ material as our group has a high population of furries that may not be aware how wild the images got, and im not about to make a *other* tube account to show it all,. the hackers posted many images that bleach may be needed after seeing as well and i'd like to not have the video reported for why they posts like that needed actual reporting.... I am not a furry myself but know many who commented on it and was saying it was hacked in realtime....and for my channel for the park rebuild we literally post hecklers chats right to our youtube channel and had similar post attacks in our discord in the the past so were *very* proficient at it. On the positive it only took them 20 minutes to really contain the twitter madness. anyone got bleach to unsee some of those images!

[@Therealstevecypher]

When I click on it it just gives me the site is down page and a link to the discord. I was already logged in so I’m most likely fine.

[@Therealstevecypher]

In my opinion I feel like this was just some troll. So far I’ve only heard people being sent to kiwi farms and a crypto scam. But time will tell if this was more malicious or not.

[@SERGEY.TABORITSKY-y7g]

I’m not sad that dragoneer died

[@Barafu]

Kiwi Farms is responsible, I think it's time we respond three fold back to them.

[@nacroni]

KiwiFarms didn't do anything. it was just a script kiddie who made furaffinity redirect to KiwiFarms

[@Felix24148]

Actually Sam Hyde did it

[@Hakuoo8]

I hope removal is possible from furaffinity ❤

[@pastadinnertheater8657]

Honestly W for the hackers that shit is hilarious

[@Scenisceni]

Ok

[@Xoriey]

Half of the furries tried claiming I was the hacker 💀

[@A2goddess]

So how long will fa will stay like that? I haven't changed my password because I didn't know this would happen. I have to be honest about dragoneer he wasn't even great because there's some things he done that raised concerns. I hope they get him but really I don't blame him at all. This isn't new to me furry haters hate us but to me I don't care i get use with the hate. So it doesn't bother me much. The problem is that far left furries gets offended at everything and get offended by people's opinions.

[@2010hyundaielantra]

W hacker -me, a furry

[@Oliwierknz]

good that it got hacked

[@Kalamino]

Cool

[@Rfdp0]

Straight up L. Could not be me fr.

[@raglit9492]

Sigma hacker

[@Irobert1115HD]

not sigma. badly tested beta. the guy watched some tutorials and got lucky. now he lost several hundred thousand of his bitcoins values and, after redirecting FA to kiwifarms is now hunted by the largest cluster of cybersec experts, it specialists and doxxers. and you know what: they already doxxed him. yes kiwi farms hates that guy too.

[@CUSTERM16A2]

Not buying it.
