GTA 6 leak hunt could expose data belonging to thousands of Discord users
The leak of Grand Theft Auto 6 footage prompted Take-Two Interactive to issue a subpoena to Microsoft and Discord, demanding sensitive data such as IP addresses, phone numbers, and linked cloud accounts from certain server members. The leaks were published by an account called CyberLeek, which claimed ideological motives regarding game publishing practices. Furthermore, the article noted that Take-Two has faced previous hacking incidents, including one where the ShinyHunters cybercrime crew stole records.
