Disney Slack hacker was Californian, not Russian: DoJ
Briefly

Ryan Mitchell Kramer, a 25-year-old Californian, has agreed to plead guilty to accessing Disney's internal systems and threatening to damage a protected computer. Last year, a group called Nullbulge claimed responsibility for the breach as a protest against Disney's treatment of artists. However, the Department of Justice uncovered that Kramer was the true culprit, using malware disguised as an AI art app to gain access to Disney's Slack channels. He accessed sensitive internal data, including personal employee information, hitting the company hard with a theft of over 1.1 TB of information.
Kramer accessed Disney's internal Slack channels and obtained sensitive data using malware disguised as an AI art generation app, impacting employee privacy and security.
The stolen data, totaling over 1 terabyte, was claimed to be a protest against unfair artist compensation, but the actual perpetrator was a single individual.
