Hackers claim Disney data theft in protest against AI-generated artwork

Hacktivists claim to have stolen more than a terabyte of data from Disney's internal chat platform and are leaking the information online in a protest against what they say is the company's anti-artist stance. The group, which calls itself NullBulge, has been active since at least May. It claims to be motivated by a desire to "protect artists' rights and ensure fair compensation for their work". On Friday, it published the entirety of Disney's internal Slack channel online through the decentralised BitTorrent filesharing platform. Unlike many corporate hackers, NullBulge seems not to be interested in financial rewards.
