It's not clear yet how much, if anything, the hackers got.

How do they know the specific amount of data if they stopped it.

Transfer in progress got cancelled?

Stopped it at 94% complete. Mission accomplished.

Just like how they make their games!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

94% seems pretty generous.

Count the number of project folders and multiply by 5tb?

Soooo they had ~~minus~~ negative 5 folders?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Sorry, not how math works. They got positive 0.18 projects.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

Depending on the format, that might be enough to stop the threat.

If hackers had access to the computer you're using right now, how much data is stored on it?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Not an expert but there’s the whole operating system which is so many gigs and then the photos and stuff

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Well... either hackers found a hard drive with fifteen copies of Windows 11 installed... or there was about 900 GB of project data vulnerable.
