Yeah marketing stunts that involve subpoenaing two major corporations. Sure. Fuck off shitjeet this narrative is fucking retarded.

Imagine being so retarded to think they would run a crypto scam under their own IP. That's fraud, to start, but there's several other hefty criminal charges associated it. It would tank Take Two's stock overnight, there would be nothing left to stand on. Not to mention they've already ordered subpoenas to discord and microsoft in relation to the leaker

Is it legal for rockstar to use harrasment as a marketing tool?
>>
>>746007262
The shitskins that run rockstar are literally incapable of running a scheme like this without it immediately being found out.
>>
>>746007262
This. Its just like when Tears of the Kingdom leaked 2 weeks early. Nintendo did it on purpose
>>
Simple incompetence is always the much more likely reason especially for big retarded corporations, I'd be very surprised if it was all some elaborate 4D chess move.

How does it work when they're trying to scam with a shitcoin?

>>746007262
Seeing as the game in the leak looks AWFUL with floaty terrible mo-cap combat, I doubt it

They're the most secretive control freak company around, these leaks go against everything they do. Rockstar is absolutely seething right now and using every possible resource to catch the guy.

I don't know how to explain to you the actionable litigious probability between a simple video game leak, and a crypto heist, but one is way more illegal.

Pic related, screenshot from his website, blocking out the addresses for obvious reasons.

it doesn't matter how many connections they have, they would have to shut down taketwo as an example if this was actually true and got out

The only way I might believe this is if they used it as an excuse to delay the game. Which wouldn't surprise me.

Not to mention the crypto scam and all the underage GTA fans that got advertised to invest in crypto

sorry its not gonna happen

If you have the same conspiracy theory as that vanta black spear chucking pavement ape you really need to rethink your life.

Nah it's state actors probably ATP 41 (aka Double Dragon), it fits their MO and given the whole crypto bs and Take 2 not being able to catch them.

People in the past have gotten banned and arrested for this type of shit so why is this guy just free to do this?
Makes you wonder.
>>
>>746008560
Because in the past it was some retard from a 1st world cucked country like England

This new leaker uses a DECENTRALIZED website and is probably somewhere living in the swamps of fucking india

good luck tracking him down

Rockstar now also has realized there is no stopping of this guy, so instead they go after everyone else.
>>
>>746008393
Wait, they assume that the hacker has zero experience and wasn't involved in anything just because that specific alias and the leek character weren't used before?
Is this nigger retarded? It's a fucking alias. And GTA 6 is big enough to warrant creating a new "brand" for yourself.
>>
>>746007262
Imagine boot licking so hard that you come up with every excuse to make your corpodaddy not seem like incompetent retards.
Why would they pull a stunt that could easily backfire when they already had captive cocksuckers like you in the millions?
Why would they do anything that might break your conditioning when they could sit back and watch you paypigs slurp up the next round of swill they dish out?
>>
>>746007262
The first thing ANY real leaker would spoil is the story and ending.
>>
>>746008720
Basically this.

>>746008720
The claim is theyy're blackmailing rockstar for money in exchange for not leaking the story.

the leaks just made me way more excited for gta 6
it's exactly what i was hoping it to be: gta but with some rdr2 mechanics
can't wait to see the actual finished look in a few days

>>746008720
Probably waiting closer to release. Then they'll dump the whole build online for free the day before release.

>>746007262
Would this be illegal? Assuming you did leaks yourself, I can't imagine that would be illegal, what's the fraud? The involvement of the crypto donations though is the suspect part. It feels like fraud, but I don't know how. What's the scam? It's donations, you didn't buy anything.

the amount of mental gymnastics people will jump through just to avoid the fact that some jeet had all of the files unencrypted, lost it all because he was looking for bobs and vagen on the internet and got his PC aids

>>746009407
How exactly is that illegal? Under what law? What specific clause? There's no rule against leaking something if the company itself is the one behind it.

False DMCA claim is perjury. Filing court documents claiming there's a genuine infringer is perjury. Using courts to hunt a person they know doesn't exist is abuse if judicial justice. Lying to FBI is a federal felony. Using the stunt to manipulate TT stock is fraud. And running a crypto scam is potential fraud or market manipulation, depending on the outcome of the coin. (it's a rug pull btw)
>>
>>746009898
It's impossible for corpos to break the law, chud. Only plebes can break the law.
>>
>>746009898
For sake of argument assuming they did the leaks themselves, they would obviously not report to police and file court docs and the like. Manipulating stock though is definitely a very seriously taken crime (sometimes). Unless there were other charges (like manipulating stock), I don't think they would persue false DMCA claims, because you are the victim and the defendant in the case, it's kind of a low level thing to care about on its own
>>

AI and Twitter really did do a number on the internet for schizophrenics
>>
>>746010069
>Using courts to hunt a person they know doesn't exist is abuse if judicial justice.
How do you know those docs and claims went through?
>>
>>746010069
For the sake of argument they would wipe about 20 billion off of their stock value if they were caught overnight, and any individuals that were knowingly participating in this would be imprisoned for a minimum of 5 years.
Then there would be the class action lawsuits from the investors over the market manipulation, which would cost them many more billions. Any lawyers who knowingly submitted any of the false claims would be immediately disbarred and probably imprisoned, too.
The most absurd part is they don't need guerilla marketing. They could upload a 15-second clip of Jason fingering his asshole and get 50 million views.
>>
>>746010258
Yeah I don't think they did this, I was just wondering what they (who is they?) would be charged with if they did. Some things "feel" like fraud but I'm not a lawyer so it's not immediately clear to me what the argument of fraud is. The stock manipulation makes a lot of sense though
>>
>>746010334
Not a lawyer either just a corpo IT grunt irl, but people talk about all kinds of shit when I am crawling under desks so I overhear everything on how this kind of shit works.
We know they made real DMCA claims, and subpoenaed information from M$ and Discord.
It would be perjury and fraud mostly, with a bunch of civil liabilities.
Particularly retarded when they are dropping their official gameplay footage one week from the leaks which will get a gorillian views.
>>
>>746008213
If everything looks good, it would make the leaks appear too obviously like a marketing stunt.

He leaked Jason taking a piss. This is the only story he's leaked.

You're categorically correct, seized is not the proper term, but his host (and telegram channels) were definitely hit with DMCAs and removed. You can check it yourself.

Only if they get caught pants down with irrefutable evidence. It's marketings job to make sure that doesn't happen.
Orchestrated leaks to drum up hype is hardly a new concept.

>but crypto
Has anyone trustworthy provably engaged with it? For all we know, the "donation" meters are fake and the trader listings are cuckstar sockpuppets to make it seem real, because no sane person would buy into shit like that.
