Announcement to all hacking groups: Quit threatening first and just open the damn fire hose already.
They said they want to sell them. We may never see them.
It's a digital file, if they were smart they would sell it as many times as possible, in a short of space of time as possible, then leak it anyway. Unless they can get a really good blackmail deal out of it, then probably sell it anyway
For sure, lots of stuff can happen. I guess I was just tempering my expectations. Iran probably wants to use it. If it can destabilize the US then I'm sure they will release it, but if they get more from it from keeping it hidden, I would bet they do that.
This group is trying to make money. IMHO see how much they can get then dump it all.
Edit: they're suspected of being Iranian. Not that I think this regime could spell the word attribution but if they are this is political capital.
Yeah? And?
Nothing will happen. He's a dictator, surrounded by loyalists and with a secret police.
There are too many headlines where the first half is exciting.
Trump hit by bombshell
Iranian leader slaps trump
Oh God let them release it.
If a hacker can do it, you can damn well bet multiple nation-states are just chilling in the systems slurping everything up.
And they are smart enough to not let anyone know they’re drinking all that stolen info in
Your run of the mill APT prefers powdered form that they can mix into their beverage of choice.
hackers who can't spell, you mean. What about someone with attention to detail?
What could they possiply contain that may harm him and we've not heard yet?
He's an idiot? Corruption? Sexual assault? Dictator's dreams? Nazi ideas?
At this stage, there is nothing that could deterr his cult, and he already doesn't care about his perception out of the cult.
Two situations tank a politician:
"During a successful election campaign for governor in 1983, he boasted, "The only way I can lose this election is if I'm caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy.""
So... A dead boy would have been OK? 🤔
Fucking call me when it’s an actual bombshell so I know who to nominate for the Nobel peace prize.
Iran, if you're listening....
Go on Elon, just another line of ket and you'll get your revenge

Threat From Hackers Who Stole His Aides’ Emails
😞
Someone should setup a Gofundme so We The People can pay the hackers to release the goodies. Criminals though they are, they're probably less terrible human beings than the orange utan in the White House or any of his henchmen. I'd pitch in...
I wish but these groups almost never release the information. They get paid or caught. :(
The threat:

It doesn’t matter what they find or stole from his emails. They could have videos, photos and testimony directly from Trump at Epstein Island and his supporters would still say it is taken out of contact and still vote for him.
Was one of the hackers Big Balls?
