Yikes, hope they can find and disclose whatever they used to compromise an admin account.
Just clicked into Lenny.world and saw “site has been seized by Reddit for copyright infringement “
Looked like the admin u/MichelleG over there got hacked. That account posted a couple stickied posts and then all the css and links started changing on the site.
You would think an admin account would have 2fa enabled (unless the hack was due to a security issue in lemmy itself, but it doesn't seem to be the case).
Lemmy.world front page is back up, but I am now logged-out
Looks like this thread is getting mass downvoted by bots btw
Ah, crap...
Oof. Oh well, at least they’re getting recognized I guess.
I decided to check it and it tells me that 'The site has been seized by Reddit for copyright infringement'.
Same, I think I’m staying up to watch the drama tonight lmao
