thetonestarr said: They didn't download it, most likely. At even the absolute best commercial internet connections in the world (we're talking 1Gbps-type speeds), 40TB would take 4 days straight of 100% maxed out transfer rates, and that relies on both the corporation having that fast an upload speed and the hacker having that fast a download speed. Then there's where the heck they'd put it. They themselves said they don't know what to do with it. Given that 99% of the American population doesn't even have access to speeds above 10Mbps (whether that be for finances or the services simply not existing where they live), we can pretty much rule out that they downloaded that much (at 10Mbps instead of 1Gbps, that 4 days becomes 388 days. Again, 100% maxed out the entire time). No, what happened in this story is that Anon got ACCESS to 40TB internal data, and have begun doing frightening things with that access. |
And you'd think that sometime in those 4 days (or far longer), the company being downloaded from would figure it out...

Yeah, 40TB is a pretty big thing to not notice going through the pipelines.
