CyberNiggers hacker group behind Colonial Pipeline Data Breach
Disturbingly, apart from this Colonial Pipeline data breach, the CyberNiggers hacker group claims to have breached several other pipeline companies, including BoardWalk Pipeline, Dominion Energy, Enbridge, Energy Transfer, and more. The hacker group asserts that they have stolen a staggering 200GB of data and files, offering both access and pilfered data to potential buyers.
