SiegedSec, a collective of self-proclaimed “gay furry hackers,” has claimed credit for breaching online databases of the Heritage Foundation, the conservative think tank that spearheaded the rightwing Project 2025 playbook. On Wednesday, as part of string of hacks aimed at organizations that oppose trans rights, SiegedSec released a cache of Heritage Foundation material.
In a post to Telegram announcing the hack, SiegedSec called Project 2025 “an authoritarian Christian nationalist plan to reform the United States government.” The attack was part of the group’s #OpTransRights campaign, which recently targeted rightwing media outlet Real America’s Voice, the Hillsong megachurch, and a Minnesota pastor.
In his foreword to the Project 2025 manifesto, the Heritage Foundation’s president, Kevin Roberts, rails against “the toxic normalization of transgenderism” and “the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology.” The playbook’s other contributors call on “the next conservative administration” to roll back certain policies, including allowing trans people to serve in the military.
“We’re strongly against Project 2025 and everything the Heritage Foundation stands for,” one of SiegedSec’s leaders, who goes by the handle vio, told The Intercept.
Whenever I see the words “gay furry hackers” in a headline, I smile.

And fabulous!
And my axe!
And apparently furry too.
The trans-mission was a success
This immediately made me think of Hedwig and the angry inch
What specifically did they find that’s juicy? The text in that forward?
Because TBH those quotes are about what I’d expect.
Well it wasn’t going to be the straight furry hackers.
As a straight furry, I find this offensive. Although it is accurate.
Is there a word for offensively accurate
Late night show
It’s like anonymous, but effective!
Straight hurry fackers
Rip it to shreds fast as your paws can kids
I assume they are on Lemmy.
Good job, guys.
uwu
Hell yeah! Keep up the good work and dig deeper!
there are other kinds of hackers?
what about that transphobe misandrist hacker that does Denuvo cracks?
Was thinking the triple redundancy must be for security purposes, but I don’t own stripey knee socks so obviously know nothing of IT.
based hackers
Thank you, Gay Furries for your service.
I checked the article to see if this was the NULLBULGE folks again, but no, this was reportedly executed by by SiegedSec. A different queer furry hacker group.
gay furry hacker group? sorry, this is the trans therian greyhat group. though if you’re looking for the queer scaly infosec group they’re right down the hall
I mean, there is never enough gay/furry hacking groups rooting for our rights. Keep it up!
Quite the story here.
Do the Gay Furry Hackers accept donations?
If I ever find these hackers I’m going to treat them to lunch.
They were gay children then professionals and furries. These hackers have been breathing operational security their whole lives. You probably find them when some Morpheus dude in assless chaps offers you two different brands of poppers.
We all have VHS that need to be cleaned
These fuckers are finding out how many queer people are very good with computers.
There’s a reason “furries run the internet” is only kinda a joke
Furries do the back-end stuff, Femboys do anything client-facing.
Furries have stuff coming from their back ends (tail), femboys stuff their back ends (they are tail)
Guess I have to start wearing skirts.
Fursuits coat money, working with computers (typically) pays well; it’s a tale as old as… the internet?
Yes, but only because before the Internet they weren’t called furries. (I don’t know if there was a different name. I don’t even know if it was A Thing.)
Not in its current form, no.
There definitely were furries, but we didn’t form a cohesive subculture until we started getting online in the late 80’s.
He so prostituted his own chastity that after defiling almost every part of his body, he at last devised a kind of game, in which, covered with the skin of some wild animal, he was let loose from a cage and attacked the private parts of men and women, who were bound to stakes, and when he had sated his mad lust, was dispatched by his freedman Doryphorus;

Man Nero is such an icon
Protoyiff has been added to the lexicon. Thank yooooo verymuch.
How dare you post this without the sauce.
Suetonius, Twelve Caesars, Nero, Chapter 29 Suetonius loved him a good scandal, bit of a gossip.
So it was an inside job from the closet crew of these comic book villains of our dystopian reality.
