winter is here it appears house hbo's wall has been breached and by wallets like a firewall so no major spoilers for any of you Game of Thrones fans out there but it looks like HBO was the victim of a potentially major hack the hackers responsible are claiming highly coveted information about upcoming episodes of Game of Thrones is part of the stolen data an anonymous email sent of various news outlets and reporters announced the hack specifically named checking Game of Thrones as part of the planned leak they say they have 1.5 terabytes of data which could be anything from undeveloped scripts to unreleased episodes of shows like Game of Thrones there's also a chance private employee data was stolen making it a stressful time for anyone at the company HBO chairman and CEO Richard plepler attempted to calm the storm in an email to employees stating quote any intrusion of this nature is obviously disruptive unsettling and disturbing for all of us I can assure you that senior leadership and our extraordinary technology team along with outside experts are working around the clock to protect our collective interests unquote so while HBO is confirming that there was a breach they're not saying which shows were affected and what might have been taken and if those hackers do make good on their threat to drop unreleased episodes of Game of Thrones here's my advice don't watch them support the people who worked really hard to make a show we all enjoy for cnet.com I'm Ashley sceva vegan humans you
