An online course founded by far-right influencer Andrew Tate was breached by hackers, revealing the email addresses of roughly 325,000 users.

The self-described online university, known as The Real World, offers users “advanced training and mentoring” for around $50 per month. Formerly known as Hustler’s University, the platform focuses on topics such as health and fitness, financial investment, and e-commerce businesses.

“Money making is a skill,” the website states. “We will teach you how to master it.”

On Thursday, the hackers made their actions known by flooding the course’s primary chatroom with emojis they uploaded while Tate was streaming an episode of his show “Emergency Meeting” on Rumble. 

The emojis included a transgender flag, a feminist fist, an AI-generated image of Tate draped in a rainbow flag, another where his buttocks are enlarged, and the cat character used in the “boykisser” meme.

I guess their security turned out to be as fragile as their masculinity!

If everyone on that list was closely monitored from here, probably the end of school shootings.

For anyone not aware, the entire breach has been published by DDOSecrets and can be torrented by anyone.

For research and journalism purposes, of course.

These hackers have fantastic values, and the effort they put into this made the world a slightly better place. Good on em.

It's extra sad when women get sucked into the maga cult
