'Zeus' Hacker Group Strikes Israeli Olympic Athletes in Data Leak (www.darkreading.com)

The sensitive data of several Israeli athletes in the Paris Olympic Games was published on Telegram in an alleged doxing attack on Friday.

A hacking group calling itself "Zeus" (likely a nod to the Games' Greek origins) is allegedly responsible, and also purportedly leaked the military status of Israeli athletes on social media a day prior.

I haven't looked at the dox, but if they have apartments/properties outside of Israel, it'll lead to some good ol' vandalism. With addresses inside Israel it's most likely gonna be harassment in the form of letters and packages. Same goes for phone numbers and email addresses.

Essentially, make their lives as uncomfortable as possible. And because they know they've been doxed, it's unlikely to lead to physical violence, because I doubt they're stupid enough to stay at (now publicly known) addresses outside of Israel.

Oh no, a German calling all the Jews criminals indiscriminately and calling for extreme lawless measures against "that nation of criminals". That is such a fresh take.

Huh, so you're a supporter of forcing people out of their homes when they've committed no crime other than have the misfortune of being born in the wrong country? Where have I seen this one before...

Reading comprehension just isn't your thing is it?

I literally said it's about them advertising their country and not speaking out despite having the platform. It has nothing to do with where they're born.

So you still support forcing people out of their homes, though? Cool, nice chatting with you, Bibi.
