Tons of infosec folks are furries, gay etc.. I'm presuming, because having to hide your personality is quite the motivation to learn about potential attacks and defenses.

So, no matter whether you think of this particular stunt as good or bad, it's really not indicative of gay furry hackers a whole. Most of them are holding our IT infrastructure together, without doing big name hacks in their freetime.
