"The Chaos Communication Congress is an annual convention held by the Chaos Computer Club in Hamburg, Germany. Root gave a presentation there alongside journalists Eva Hoffmann and Christian Fuchs which concluded with the hacker deleting the servers of white supremacist sites WhiteDate, WhiteChild, and WhiteDeal live on stage. As TechCrunch lays out, these three sites are dedicated to racist match making, racist egg and sperm donations, and a racist labor marketplace. White people use these sites to make sure they only link up with other white people."
"Root also published personal data from these sites, including profile images and other information, but is holding back emails, passwords, and private conversations 'for now.' The gender disparity in these sites is pretty telling, with Root noting that 86 percent of users were men, with women making up the additional 14 percent, a split they say 'makes the village look like a feminist utopia.' 'Imagine calling yourselves the 'master race' but forgetting to secure your own website - maybe try mastering to host WordPress before world domination,' Root said."
An anonymous hacker using the pseudonym Martha Root, dressed as the Pink Power Ranger, deleted the servers of white supremacist websites WhiteDate, WhiteChild, and WhiteDeal live on stage at the Chaos Communication Congress. The sites facilitated racist matchmaking, racially exclusive egg and sperm donation, and a racist labor marketplace. Root presented alongside journalists Eva Hoffmann and Christian Fuchs and said that an AI chatbot was used to extract user information. The site administrator called the deletions 'cyberterrorism.' Root published profile images and other data while withholding emails, passwords, and private conversations for now. Site demographics showed 86 percent men and 14 percent women. Root taunted the sites' security failures, urging better hosting skills.
