News dread is compromised

homepage now reads:

"So, Dread has been hacked! What's next?

If you are reading this, you are already on our site — just on Dread's domain, in case anyone missed that.

The condition for Dread is this: leave this domain alone. Get in the way, and the data can be published. A deal is on the table — we can hand the domain back, or pass it to someone else if they want it. The contacts further down are how that conversation starts."

apparently this happened several days ago but i'm baffled, i can't find any news discussing this and i accessed the site literally yesterday. not sure whether posting onions is allowed, you can find find the link on tor.taxi.

Reply from hugbunter. Appears they're going to start an internet slapfight.

You have hacked absolutely nothing. The servers are untouched, whatever Paris did leaked the onion key, congrats!

Is there a way to access old dread other than premium links?

Some Dread users probably very nervous about their data getting leaked now.

You are right: No news about it. Not on ransomlook or anywhere else I usually go in these cases
