Who are you quoting

>>47039452
you're mom

NND not working for the entire weekend is a huge kick in the balls for many groups of users. Download your shit and don't put all eggs in one basket people

>>47039452
I said all of this

I don't think anyone here gives a shit as the majority here hasn't ever even really used nico nico douga before or is even remotely aware just how much of the original japanese internet culture would be lost if that place went down for good. You can just go into the archives to check how the last thread discussing nico nico douga in detail was maybe two or three years ago it's all just a bunch of big circle jerks here that have barely anything to do with japanese internet culture and if it comes up it's the equivalent of "lol japan" and has no further discussion it's just people jacking it to their favorite touhou, vtuber, 3dpd, idols, and whatever other bullshit

>>47041451
It's hard to blame anyone here for Nico waning in relevance when it's just as true for the majority Japanese users. A lot of old culture would be lost if the site disappeared tomorrow, and arguably a lot of still modern culture like MADs would scatter into the wind too, but it's really not the otaku monument it once was. I've been using the site since SP1 and you can't really ignore that it's just kinda dead in most respects outside of huge events like Vocacolle.

>>47041501
>Nico waning in relevance
It was honestly never relevant here in the first place for it to be waning in relevance. I mean even in 2008 to 2009, although there were a lot of threads about nico nico, those threads quickly died off to shit like all of the weeaboo, touhou and fate spam and no one here really knew what the fuck was going on what the fuck it meant few people tried discussing those things in detail figuring out the meaning and a lot of them also just didn't by just regurgitating
whatever the japanese did in the hopes of people understanding what the fuck they were talking about. This could have maybe been all solved if there was a completely separate slow moving board created for the detailed discussions about japanese internet culture and anything even remotely off-topic banned

>>47041637
I was speaking broadly about Nico waning in relevance, not just on this site. /jp/ has historically been one of the slowest moving boards, so I'm not sure why you'd think introducing another would solve this problem if no one wants to discuss the topic at hand in the first place. Nico has failed on all accounts to attract or retain an audience, so why should it be surprising that no one cares what it is a decade after its height or wants to talk about it beyond twee nostalgia? You're perfectly free to introduce the minutiae of 例のアレ to everyone if you wanted to, but I doubt there is anyone really around to give a shit to begin with.

Futaba may is also dead and moving to private discords

>>47039163
So is this the next phase of the credit card companies' plans?

Just because /jp/ is a bunch of casuals doesn't mean the site is dying, it's still the place to go for all the good stuff and it can't be easily replaced because jewtube doesn't have danmaku comments and frankly it sucks huge nigger cocks when it comes to searching and tagging. And the most important part, they couldn't care less about taking this market over

Look at the number of premium subs and try to say it's not. This is already outdated too after the latest Kadokawa report, they're going to fall below 1 million by next year at their current rate. This is also before accounting for the number of subs they are deferring with the payment processors now ditching them and the price for premium going up in March (https://www.famitsu.com/news/202402/29336168.html).

Pretty much anything you can get on Nico you can get elsewhere without shit buffering and eco mode hours. Almost every VocaloP figured this out and crossposts to YouTube as well, where they get far more views. Danmaku is a low draw when you can achieve the same thing with an extension, and YouTube is also trialing their own "timed" comments feature on mobile.

>>47041451
anon, niconico content may be really fun sometimes, but really, it's hard to defend a website with such shit service. not even pre-google youtube was that bad.

Well, fuck. I just subbed to danime like two days ago and I've only used my subscription to watch ONE episode of U149. I want my money back.

>Attacking NND
For what?
It's already fucking dead LOL

>>47041451
What kinda stupid fucking post is this? I can't remember the last time I talked about Youtube or saw a Youtube thread here, does that mean /jp/ doesn't watch Youtube either?
>>47042098
However, no, Niconicodouga has been in the red for like its entire lifespan. It only exists because it's in the same spot as Youtube but given Japan's smaller community doesn't mean it's not an automatic "keep it up forever" site. That being said I don't think it's dying and anyone who says it is, they're just doomposting.

>>47043575
>doomposting
It's fine to live with your nostalgia but when the audience is leaving, the experience/tech sucks, and the financials look bad then it's appropriate to acknowledge it's dying. Dying doesn't mean dead anyway, there's still cool shit posted to Nico for the moment. There's plenty more fat for Nico to trim before the videos get erased entirely, but that's mostly what they've been doing for the few years shutting things down, or catching up on shit like being able to post HD videos longer than 10 minutes that should have been fixed just as long ago.

>>47042253
That's way more than you'd think.

>>47043493
Chances are it wasn't even attacked, just got more traffic than usual and collapsed. That's nothing new, even back in 2008 tyhat was very comon, NND has always sucked. If I find anything interesting there I check if there's a bilibili or youtube mirror first.

>>47043575
Nico Nico Douga was created as a video sharing platform for otakus that is primarily dedicated to sharing videos related to otaku culture you dumb nigger when you compare youtube to nico nico in that case newgrounds was the precursor to youtube, no?

>>47044428
Are you going to be saying the same thing when they burn through through even more in the next few years at a rate that's only getting faster? They're well past half of their peak. That's a pathetic number for a site that has attempted to be a portal site for everything under the sun and has had Kadokawa backing it when anime is at maybe its most popular. It isn't only not growing, but shrinking fast.

The fact that Kemono Friends single-handledly revived NND when it was getting close to a deserted town yet Kadokawa intentionally proceeded to kill the whole franchise immediately turned the whole place into a graveyard since elevens were so disgusted they actually voted with their feet (see where 2017 lands on >>47042253).
It will take a while to die off completely since there's stuff like long-running premium channels with loyal customers (and even they are airing simultaneously on Youtube now) and weirdoes who refuse to use mainstream platforms, but like others have said it is definitely only a matter of time since Kadokawa is extremely good at making business mistakes and mistreating their IPs.

>I don't think anyone here gives a shit
I can't speak for anyone else but I majorly give a shit. The loss of NND would be catastrophic as almost every MMD distribution uses the videos on there for links/passwords. There's probably thousands of model links/passwords that would be lost forever.

I noticed last night when I tried to use it was down which I thought was bizarre, but the quip just said it was maintenance. Seeing that it was a DDoS attack after all is pretty unnerving.

I think it's really suspicious that nico nico douga is going to stay offline until the 16th as cyberattacks never really take down a website for days... I know they told us that our credit card information is safe and another Japanese user said that the token used to keep credit card info is like somewhere else but never underestimate how incompetent UNEI is

>>47056914
While modern conveniences and stuff like cloudflare mean DDoS attacks are usually just a minor inconvenience nowadays, it's unlikely Nico's spaghetti code has ANY form of DDoS protection on top of what's probably a skeleton crew of people maintaining it.

https://gigazine.net/gsc_news/en/20240610-kadokawa-niconico-service-unavailable/

Apparently this attack extended to a bunch of Kadokawa's websites too, not just nico. Somewhat depressingly, it's apparently been 16 years since the site has gone a day without a vocaloid song being posted.

I'm actually interested to know who did the DDoS. People hate Nicovideo or Kadokawa for multiple reasons, but why now they're attacking?

>>47041763
Got any specific details on this? because I just got into the server and it seems to be backfiring.

>>47059294

NTA, but ain't it a bit too high profile though? I mean it's not to the levels of FANG associated, but it's still relatively big and important to be just a test I find.

>>47059397
Huge spam across a ton of threads. Even if OPs can delete/ban people from their threads, it's coming from different IPs so they can't efficiently deal with it, and there apparently hasn't been a peep from management.

>>47044582
Kadokawa never learns even with other people's IP. They had a voicevox/voiceroid shitfest that happened january~april this year.

>>47073181
Damn even futaba is being fucked by turbo autists, one of the first threads on their random board is complaining about it

>>47073893

NND is and has always been theirs. Kadokawa was a major shareholder in Dwango since day 1.

I need a fix for some Touhou Banhouten MADs but the shitty site's still down. Hopefully they didnt delete all the full length eroge videos I uploaded.

>>47085551
https://www.itgovernance.co.uk/blog/ransomware-south-korean-web-hosting-company-pays-1m
no

>>47085551
Ransomware fucked up their internal systems. They say some of their backups might be encrypted (they host comments and some nama stuff internally) but the video data is safe because that's on a public cloud service. Pretty much they need a ton of time to restore and rebuild from scratch because putting the site back up as-is would leave them just as vulnerable.

>>47085621
That's why you keep some backups air-gapped. Fucking amateurs.

>>47085551
Its probably a state-sponsored attack by one of the usual suspects.

You definitely haven't been to NicoNico in the last 5 years.

If you have Xitter you can search for #ニコニコ鯖落ち(X)動画祭り replacing (X) with a franchise you want to search for, e.g: #ニコニコ鯖落ちアイマス動画祭り and you'll get reuploads of 音MADs/MMDs/whatever video you were searching for by their original creator (if they're on Xitter). They may or may not be of full length.

You realize the term vtubers is short for virtual Youtubers, right? They were never a NND joint. You can blame that group of people for many things but I don't think they really did anything for NND but sell some Chokaigi tickets for a year or three.
As for why people would use NND it's the same reason it's always been: the community. Say what you will about the horrid QoL features of the site but it's the only place where Japanese content can simply be pure unfiltered condensed Japan, and you can actually find more of things you already like with a functioning tagging system.
>>47120529
I really wish it didn't take some of them a decade to do so though, I never saw a reason why people couldn't just upload onto multiple sites since the absolute worst that happens is Youtube bans you for some reason, which they only sometimes do for otoMAD's and the like. I've even seen some creators upload their videos with the danmaku after they peak so you can still kinda get the NND experience even if the original NND upload gets killed.
And slightly related but while I get them being mad at reuploaders for being reuploaders, I also feel nothing but the purest form of hatred for NND creators who get entire channels taken down yet refuse to upload even a single work to Youtube. Wabisabi can suck my balls, upload your shit or give up the right to complain you retarded cunts, you're not Nintendo where there's at least some argument of profitability when it comes to not porting your 30 year old games, you're people who make videos on the internet using comedians and gay porn as instruments.

For learning Japanese maybe, there's still enough activity find some interesting threads.

Most of the guys there are also old millennials and in the 30's, so there might be a gengap if you're younger (with already a culture gap).

Why on god's green earth would someone target NND for something like this? Of all the possible places on the internet, what could you possibly gain from attacking that website? I'm baffled.

>>47130137
People still believe in Nico even it's decrepit. It's rooting for the home team (a Japanese-grown company) even when in pretty much every area they have fallen behind other global services. The tagging does make it pretty good for discovery with MADs and ボカロ uploads too, which are probably the two classes of creator that have hung on to it the most. Using YouTube you're more at the whim of recommendations or closesly combing your subscriptions.

>>47131103
If you're a company of any size, you're an attractive target for ransomware. Hacking isn't about doing it for shits and giggles anymore, it's a shakedown business where you encrypt valuable data and corner people into paying up to minimize downtime and impact. Kadokawa got hit so thoroughly by this that it's affected their publishing business too, and I imagine they probably would have paid up here if they weren't also projecting they could restore their core internal services like accounting and payments by the end of June.

>Supposedly
...I hope it's true.

Have they said if any videos were affected? There's still a bunch of stuff on there I haven't gotten around to downloading.

There's a report out that apparently has the messages from the attackers saying that the ransom was 1.7 billion yen or so in Bitcoin. Kadokawa is threatening to sue over people publishing it so it's probably somewhat legit. https://tp.kadokawa.co.jp/.assets/240622_release_zA69Tsjh.pdf

>>47149830
They haven't said anything close to that. They said "probably more than a month" last week when the placeholder site launched. If you want an optimistic take, they also said they plan to phase in functionality as they develop it.

>>47151768
All video data is safe. They actually got extremely lucky with this becuase they just finished migrating video to AWS earlier this year. This is also why it's an open question as to whether they can restore live broadcast timeshifts, but they were quick to say videos were safe. All the live streaming is still on premises and got fucked along with most everything else.

From what I understand Mangamura was just known for posting manga 5 days before it got published by simply slipping money under the table of some rural manga stores, not exactly a group of hackers who're capable of bringing NND down to its knees. Especially since if the plan was to actively destroy NND (of all things...) then video data would've been the first thing completely fucked over. At best I'd say it's a falseflag but even that'd be stretching it.

Rumors are beginning to emerge that a dark society's plans are involved in this matter.
This is very interesting when considered in light of Japanese politics and other issues of the past 30 years or so.
It is like a "Shin Megami Tensei" story.

The sad thing is. as much it is a stretch logically, it's still in the realm of believable shit they'd try, as their history of management stupidity is kinda consistent.

>>47157809
I meant that it'd be a falseflag in the sense that the attacker picked that number to bring attention back to the Mangamura settlement in an attempt to shift blame, rather than it being a member of Mangamura because again... pretty sure they were just dudes. And yeah the joke with me saying (of all things...) was that it's already something that's eternally on life support on its own, feels strange to pull the plug on that when you could instead hack into something like Uma Musume's homepage and do significantly more damage to Kadokawa. Or at least I think Uma Musume is Kadokawa, I don't know I just read one of the manga, the action one, and jerk off to the rare porn I see of them.

>>47159497
>Uma Musume is Kadokawa
Nah, Cygames is independent from the conglomerate, although anything Otaku related (that's not porn) published in book/e-book format will have Kadokawa take a cut usually.

People are saying how this will "revive" interest in niconico once they come back, but honestly everyone who didn't already before has moved to youtube now, and nobody's going to come back after like two months. The site is cooked.

>>47159929
Don't really disagree, but it's mostly an acceleration of an exodus that was already happening. Nico has been sustained by niche diehards for the better part of a decade even before this, but it's still a pretty large niche (>>47042253). A pretty common sentiment I've been seeing from people is that they can't enjoy kuso anime without the banter of scrolling comments you get from Nico broadcasts, but those are the weirdos. Same as the people that enjoy Nico Commons and editing Nicopedia.

I don't know really, there's potential for it to refocus itself when it comes back, but they are definitely going to shed even more of their audience first. If they can't balance things by Vocacolle in August, their big banner event these days, that would really spell doom as I see it.

Actually, 22chan died back in early 2022 due to twoot turning into a tranny (yes, really) not wanting to be associated with 22chan anymore, he axed the website. It was later revived by the remaining anonymous staff members months later while bunkering in livechan (precisely on Christmas I believe when the link to the new 22chan was posted). This was detailed in the memories thread but was somehow deleted afterwards...

Well shit, there goes a metric shitton of touhou MMD's and 3/4ths of the music circles.

>>47173235
It's pretty incredible it's already been down around 20 days now, and likely won't be back up for another month. Hopefully nothing will be lost, but if anything was the blow to the MMD community would be catastrophic. There's so many niche and obscure models that will simply be impossible to recover in any meaningful capacity, a lot of the uploaders aren't even around anymore.

I wonder how something like this even happens. If it's ransomware, does that mean an intern basically just clicked on one of those "hot singles near you want to chat" emails and fuck everything over?

>>47173235
Hopefully We'll see them once they re-open everything

>>47173292
>basically just clicked on one of those "hot singles near you want to chat" emails and fuck everything over?
Well most of it is phishing and opening up a script to compromise the system (i.e. a excel with macro), so it's in the realm of possibility of that.

It could be even dumber than that honestly. The japanese are uh, not very well known for knowing how to use the internet properly. There's an entire subsection of websites that just take 2ch threads and compile the best 20-30 posts that people make a livable wage off of doing purely from ad money, which doesn't imply but outright states that the majority of Japanese netizens don't have an adblocker.

Officially Dowango remains silent on the matter, but criticized Newspicks' as helping the hackers by revealing that information... So probably this is closer to the truth than false.

Listen, I don't care about these guys black hat or white hat or grey hat or fucking rainbow hatting, but if you wanna fuck with Kadokawa can you, not (you) you but the people in that image, at LEAST leave NND out of it? Or at least die in your losing war faster?

>>47196799
>at LEAST leave NND out of it?
To be fair to these criminals, I don't think they had a choice as:
>"It took some time, because of the language, to figure out that Kadokawa subsidiaries' networks were connected to each other; and to get through all the mess Kadokawa's IT department made there. We have discovered that Kadokawa networks architecture was not organized properly...."

It's bit hard to read as it's kinda ESL, but it seems that the Blacksuits were surprised themselves that Kadokawa just has one control center managing the whole (or at least a huge part of) conglomerate without any protections in between. I think it was more easier for them to just fuck everything, and why not right? It's literally more extortion leverage for the same amount of work.

Like this anons said >>47174063, the Japanese are waaay out of touch of modern networking standards. This is not me defending the hackers by the way, but Japan has to get their shit together because right now it's like sheep going to the wolf's den (or as they say in Japan "a duck carrying the leek for a hot pot").

>>47196977
While it's not exactly out of the ordinary to manage an entire datacenter through vSphere... you really wanna make sure that the machines which can access it are locked down hard, as well as to make sure nobody can get access to the main Administrator account which has access to every single VM.
This is Japanese system engineering we're talking about though, so it's total ass.

>>47196977
>This is not me defending the hackers by the way, but Japan has to get their shit together because right now
And not like, you know, the REALLY think that Japan has to catch right now, globalization.

>>47196977
I'd even go further as to say it's not the sheep going to the wolfs den, but the sheep walking into a mountain known for wolves covered in blood and walking into the first cave it sees (with the stench of wolf piss and fur all around it). The fact, or at least "fact" as written on paper since these hacker types always love to play themselves up as bigger and better than they are, of the matter is that they managed to get in and stay in even after Kadokawa closed the network. Now i'm not a coder but generally speaking if your hackers are still able to access your network after it's closed, that means the rots already set in and instead of spending 3 days trying to block outside access you should instead just freeze the entire thing. Though the phrase
>our downloading scripts kept working even after [our hacking vector or downloading?] server's IP was blocked
is the most confusing part to me. I figured if an IP connection was refused there'd be no way to download through said IP connection, or maybe that's ESL for them saying Kadokawa's servers IPs were blocked?

>>47197398
>is the most confusing part to me. I figured if an IP connection was refused there'd be no way to download through said IP connection, or maybe that's ESL for them saying Kadokawa's servers IPs were blocked?
probably something like this
kadokawa blocked our (hacker) IP from accessing the server.
but it doesn't work because we set a script for the server to SEND their data to our IP so it doesn't matter if our IP can no longer access the network. and the hilarious thing is their security admins can't detect that data upload activity

They actually didn't do anything with Niconico and no credit card information were leaked.

This is just the initial confirmed data, BlackSuit has claimed much more and I really don't have reason to doubt they are sitting on a lot.

Honestly as long as you didn't use premium the hackers aren't even gonna bother with a nobody, Even if one had a credit card number on it there's like multiple fail safes that they have to go through it's just a waste of time.
At most is you getting more spam e-mails, or a scam calls if you had a phone-number/address on the account (which is honestly a the biggest threat for the senile elderly). At worst is someone pretending to be you, but it's a really niche case that it'll come back to you.

>>47197118
>globalization
Honestly, as much as the Japanese media themselves shill the "we are behind globalization" meme, Japan already was heavily globalized by the late 90's.
The big 3 major auto corps all had foreign factories by the late 90's, and still are able to keep top market share of around 19% (Toyota+Honda+Nissan). As well as small manufacturers able to supply critical parts in their own niche.
Service Industry is shilling to everyone who wants to visit or go into the Japanese market.
Even the anime industry who were slow to this are now, generally, able to catch up with the global market (although the competition is higher).
So it's not really globalization per say that Japan is lagging behind, rather a majority people (especially politicians) do not understand what that entails aside from very few competent worldwary people; and to be fair that's not just Japan's problem, but a lot of countries. The boomers there are more willing to sniff the "good ol' days" copium, rather than to have some sacrifices to lubricate the post-bubble economy.

>>47216779
If you're still using AdBlock in 2024 you deserve to be taken for a retard by websites, because you are a retard. Same if you're using any other good adblocker without any scripts that specifically avoid that nonsense. If you wanna get mad about a recent Youtube issue, get mad about the Youtube search feature becoming completely unusable by forcing a dozen different results such as recommended for you or viewers also like in the middle of your specific search parameters.

>>47217086
Except that also doesn't work. Let's just make up a random example, if I look up "Dark Souls 3 Int Build" I'd get about 5 videos for that specifically, then a "people also watched" for another 5 or so videos mostly about cheesing bosses or other builds with a single video about a hybrid Int build, then I get another 3 of people doing things with an int build, then I get a "For you" tab which gives me videos from my feed I might have missed that in this instance is only 3 videos but I've seen go on for about 5-6, then I get a previously watched tab for another 5 videos, then a couple of videos/streams with maybe 200 views about int builds. Then it ends. At roughly around 20 videos.

You and I both know there are not only 20 videos on Youtube about this particular subject. And on top of that it still doesn't change the fact that there shouldn't be a variety of different splits in the search engine about things that aren't related to your topic of choice in the first place. At most I could get a "people also searched" tab but when I see one of those scroll by, it's the horizontal scrolling bar akin to the main pages Shorts menu that's worthless for actually finding videos. For example I just threw in a random indie game I played the other day and got this midway through the search. I also have no idea why fucking Markiplier is there as I've never watched him once in my life?

>>47218612
Some people just want to see the world burn. What's really sad is that it seems like kadokawa actually DID pay them already, but they retracted the original offer with some excuse and are now asking for even more from them.

It's kind of surprising it took so long for something like this to happen, honestly. Japs are easily exploitable as evidenced by the fact they hurriedly paid the first ransom amount, these guys will probably try to fleece them for all they can.

>>47218869
Is there even anymore fleecing to do? It's the first, if they don't follow up on their threats then they have no more chips to play. Either they're going to release it or they aren't, Kadokawa paying anymore money won't change that.

>July 1st D-day

The video data itself seems to be fine as it was on a non-Kadokawa cloud, so some data center not on Japan probably.

This kind of feels like watching history going down. I wonder how big of an impact this is going to have on the future, I imagine Kadokawa's headquarters must be in a state of meltdown right now. And going by >>47210267 it looks like they were in a bad spot even before the hackers. Curious to see what the long term repercussions of this are going to wind up being, if the leaked data isn't too damning maybe they can still bounce back, but otherwise this will probably blow up even more than it already has if it ends up doxxing some famous vtubers or something.

>>47222172
Of course nothing interesting would be there, the only thing anyone here would care about relates to NND but there's nothing important about it we don't know. I don't give a fuck about a buncha employees names, all I care about is if NND is coming back up or not.

What happened?

>>47222743
The reputational damage is definitely much bigger than whatever is going to be leaked here, but Kadokawa is also fucking huge, so it'd take a lot to topple it. It doesn't seem like the data leaked here is going to be as catastrophic as people thought it could be. My read right now would be we're going to see more leadership shakeup and everything under the Dwango banner (Nico specifcally) might struggle to justify having more resources put towards it. If you believe their latest announcements, they should pretty much be back to normal on publishing this month. Still a good opportunity to short them.

They only leaked 100 GB out of the 1.5 TB so far.

>>47222912
I stand by the characterization still. Everything we see indicates that a Windows workstation was compromised, not something like database dumps that would expose general user information. Some people, like streamers and N High School students, probably got exposed. That's still way less dramatic than what people have hyped up. 1.5 TB is amazingly paltry for a breach this big, even if it's mostly text data.

>>47222740
>AWS
Figures as much as everyone does it.

>>47222766
1) The don't actually have 1.5TB and bluffing for more money by threatening to release more.
2) They do have 1.5TB and threatening to release more if the don't get paid.

It doesn't really matter because the end result is them still trying to get more money from Kadokawa. It's not like they back down strategically anytime soon.

So anything interesting get leaked?
Unannounced games/anime/projects?

Summary of the leak
Pretty much all of it is only going to be interesting to terminally online Japs.

They also keep blaming some guy named Nakamura who works at Kadokawa or a subsidiary as the person's PC that was ransomwared in the first place.

Anyone hoping for a big Hololive/Nijisanji/VSPO leak is going to be disappointed. Any documents that dealt with them used the corps as middle men so the only names/addresses are for the corp as a whole.
The throngs of small independents that got leaked don't have that luxury though.

>>47224212
Many of the NND holos were there before the corp even existed though

is there a torrent of the leaked files yet?

iirc, there are small vtuber who later got recruited into big agency as well right?

>>47224221
>>47224280
these leaks dont seem to go that back in the past, best you can hope is if they remained active in NND with their old account

>>47224221
>>47224280
I think the leaks of the vtubers in this are from recent-ish documents. So nothing that'd be far back enough to capture the old accounts of current Holo members
Otherwise these dudes in this Jap thread would've immediately figured that out since their old NND accounts are basically common knowledge already.
>>47224275
They're on some onion site, I'm not going to bother geting them because it's like 800GB
>>47224280
>who????
I have no idea, some of the Japs were also out of the loop and confused on who this guy is.
They kept referring to him as "中村"、"ナカムラ"、and "nakamura" which are all super generic ways to type the name so I'm guessing it's just some random officer worker.
They were saying stuff like "this guy is probably afraid to show back up to work"
I assume they found files with his name all over the place in the leak and figured this is the guy.

>>47224306
Yeah that seems to be the case, it would have to be someone still active or from a recent gen that was on NND before

Not a vtuberfag but that's an interesting insurance policy if stuff ever gets leaked, I wonder if that's done intentionally for when stuff like this happens or if it's just an unintentional beneficial side-effect of being contracted.

It is strange how the discussion shifted away from the loss of NND and years of culture into people frothing at the mouth to find their favorite e-girl's address, but admittedly not really much else people can talk about on the topic anymore now that stuffs getting leaked and the topics bound to change one way or another. Truth be told I don't particularly care about any of that beyond maybe laughing at the few names from Kadokawa that worked on post S1 Kemofure getting their shit shoved in, but the most important part is I just wanna know if NND will come back up or not and if somehow we can get back to business as normal. Which I already know we won't but I wouldn't still be on this board in 2024 if I weren't at least slightly delusional.
Actually, another good thing to come from this would be the remaining people still on NND deciding to start mirroring their stuff on Youtube. Which is a decision that should've been made by most like a decade ago but at least their hands are getting forced now, I guess? Since I imagine even long-gone creators are coming back once they hear the news of their card potentially being leaked.

Dwango has been in contact with Yajuu-senpai?

Around April, Nakamura copied the personal information of N High School students from a separate server to his personal folder on the server (perhaps for work efficiency?).
In a normal company, this data should have been deleted, but it was left as is.
In June, a vulnerability was discovered and exploited, leading to infection with ransomware. Data related to Kadokawa, including NicoNico, was stolen by hackers.
After confirming the stolen data, the hackers demanded a high ransom by July 1, believing they could succeed.
Kadokawa determined that the data did not include personal information of N High School students or NicoNico users and refused to pay.
Since the ransom was not paid by July 1, the hackers who planted the ransomware released the information on July 2.
Personal information of N High School students was found in Nakamura’s folder.

Yeah and where will all of the more explicit stuff go exactly? There is a big separation of culture between Nico Nico Douga and Youtube users. They don't want to mix with each other.

>>47226511
They'd get edits, mostly. I've seen more than a handful of New Years Dreams and the Gachimuchi Festivals get censored versions on Youtube and rehosted elsewhere, though I think last years for the latter was a bit scuffed and had it be a torrent for a month or two. But even then that's a subset of a subset of the amount of content in NND that could easily just be reposted to Youtube.

>credit card information [has] been confirmed leaked
Well, it's been years since I last had premium, but I may as well play it safe...

>>47226587
Fuck me. Does this mean I have to scrap that credit card that I was using for premium and get a new one?

>>47226618
For safe measure you can (and for the best you should) deactivate it and most companies will send you a replacement. Granted them actually using it is probably is very low, as most companies will have several multiple safe guards and the risk is higher for the criminals to be identified. That being said if you don't want to take the risk, and make the criminals lives harder you should.

>>47226618
Pretty sure if your credit card number is or you believe it to be in a data leak you can just cancel it and get a new one with no issues, but frankly even if there was an issue or hit to a credit score it'd be worth it just so you don't have to deal with arguing for a potential fraud claim however many days/months/years down the line.

>>47226636
>>47226667
What about Paypal?
Not that anon but I remember using Paypal for the monthly payment.

>>47226686
Paypal is fine, they can't charge more than you authorized and you can easily cancel/refund too.

>>47226686
Sorry, the only thing I know about Paypal is that my artist friends fucking hated it being the only payment processor for years. No idea what you'd do in the case of a credit card leaking, but if it's any consolation you can take your time and figure it out since it's incredibly unlikely if that was leaked the folks on Teh Dark Webz would go after you first. Unless your Paypal account is something like aaaaaaab and it'd be at the top of any list. Point is you can take a couple days of research though I'd still recommend trying to figure out what the proper course of action is ASAP.

>Paypal
I mean it depends on how Nico or Paypal did the transaction, and that we don't really know without looking at the data. I'm pretty sure it's not stupid like giving Nico the Paypal address with password or something like that (which defeats the whole entire purpose).

Honestly Paypal is pretty shit on keeping data FYI, as they had multiple leaks and even selling of data. Like they already had a leak in December 2022, so if anything would of happened to you probably it already did.

Just in case anyone's curious. Type in your e-mail address, and you can see data breaches that's associated with that e-mail. If you are associated, at the very least change your password.

Great job, retards. Did the hackers really not make it clear that they actually had the stuff or was Kadokawa just bullshitting?

>>47226824
maybe
from twitter sauces, so far only half of 1,5 TB are done uploaded

>>47226807
Jfc anon pls tell me you have 2FA

One thing is to be sure is that BlackSuit is not above doing anything for money, as they did ransom a whole school district in USA, Georgia in 2023.

I hope there's more than one person with the name Nakamura working there

>>47226988
even if there are multiple nakamura, there can be only one related with N high school data. detail here >>47226511

you're missing a very important word here - "not"

>>47227234
I think it means not verified as in we still don't know yet...?

>>47227330
It means people looked and didn't find it.
After this many hours, you can consider yourselves safe.

>>47227346
There's 1.5 TB of TEXT data on a onion link that barely loads in my browser (I am unsure if its as slow for everybody else), and I am unsure whether everything has been released yet of that 1.5 TB of data or only half of it. I'd still rather keep an eye out as maybe they're keeping that for the last...
Also I think it's rather shameful for Dwango to tweet out an official statement at this point saying that the information leaked by users from Blacksuit's website might be completely fabricated.
>Currently, in collaboration with external experts, we are verifying the leaked data to determine whose information was compromised and what specific information was leaked. At this point in our investigation, we have not yet identified the scope of the leaked information. Some of the information rumored to have been leaked online may be fake or fabricated, and we are cross-referencing with internal records to determine the actual data leaked.

This is standard boilerplate for any leak like this. You don't want to make huge claims, like viewing history and credit card data being leaked, just to throw people into a panic, especially as it's likely not everything has been posted yet. Never mind people like >>47226511 badly translating a bunch of posts probably using MTL and getting half of what the people chasing the juiciest details said wrong.

>>47227444
>TEXT data
There's a lot of random junk in there. I found a Splatoon trailer.

The nakamura guy was found watching gay porn and torrenting an eroge when the hacking started

>>47229724
Are you talking about watching gay porn or watching "gay porn"? Because with how god awful the translations are in this thread I'm expecting you to not fully understand one of the two things he could've been watching, though not that it truly matters.

>>47229989
he's probably talking about inmu

>>47230067
I know. That's why I felt the need to clarify because if someone in this thread doesn't know what Inmu is, he shouldn't be posting in it.
