That's just idiotic, I mean the company responsible for maintaining his files securely will go and find out exactly what happened since their reputation as a secure avenue to store information with online is in danger because of this "hack"

Whatever happened to Phil Fish saying he was fucking off from the public? he loves drama too much to make a smart move.

The real kicker is, the 1.5gb file that was instantly available on the website the moment it was "hacked" (fishy as fuck), contained data that will get whoever actually posted it, a lengthly jail scentence.

If it was Fish, he is going down.

See there is a lot of misinformation going on

Just to debunk a couple of things. Firstly, everything that was posted on the website that was hacked was also posted on pastebin at the same time.

Secondly, the 1.5GB archive was never hosted on the hacked website, it was always hosted on hugefiles from the start.

Thirdly, that massive archive had a dump of lots of emails in it, so it's safe to assume that his email was also compromised (as far as I know, you can't pull gmail emails from a hosted website), so it's entirely possible that a majority of the details that were harvested were from that and then pushed to the website when everything was ready.

It also appears that a Fez developer has confirmed the hack and stated that the Polytronics website isn't hosted by cloudflare, it's merely their caching service.
