An online course founded by far-right influencer Andrew Tate was breached by hackers, revealing the email addresses of roughly 325,000 users.
The self-described online university, known as The Real World, offers users “advanced training and mentoring” for around $50 per month. Formerly known as Hustler’s University, the platform focuses on topics such as health and fitness, financial investment, and e-commerce businesses.
“Money making is a skill,” the website states. “We will teach you how to master it.”
On Thursday, the hackers made their actions known by flooding the course’s primary chatroom with emojis they uploaded while Tate was streaming an episode of his show “Emergency Meeting” on Rumble.
The emojis included a transgender flag, a feminist fist, an AI-generated image of Tate draped in a rainbow flag, another where his buttocks are enlarged, and the cat character used in the “boykisser” meme.
“University” is a pretty generous description.
I guess their security turned out to be as fragile as their masculinity!
For anyone not aware, the entire breach has been published by DDOSecrets and can be torrented by anyone.
For research and journalism purposes, of course.
Obxiously I get the joke in the name DDoSecrets, but it is funny that denial is the exact opposite of what they’re doing.
Denying secrets?
If everyone on that list was closely monitored from here, probably the end of school shootings.
These hackers have fantastic values, and the effort they put into this made the world a slightly better place. Good on em.

Oohh, where can I find this list? My wife’s ex is one of those sad little men who follows and recommends him everywhere
From the above comment:
Boot camps for adults that don’t actually want to do any real work along with a get rich quick incel overtone. What a scam.
“incel” is key word here. utter trash.
worried for all my favorite youtubers who signed up in order to expose how shit the content is lol. hope they used fake info.
He was streaming? Isn’t he about to go to jail?
i thought he was already in jail tbh
Hi mom I just enrolled in the university of a guy who traffics sex slaves and thinks all women should be one
My mom is maga so she would probably be proud
It’s extra sad when women get sucked into the maga cult
And Latinos. And African Americans.
Their case against him is falling apart. I dont like rapist like everyone else but I hate when innocent people are charged with bogus crimes.
Romaine of all places… I would know coming from a similar country where money has much much much higher weight than justice, even for foreigners. Would like to see him trialed in the UK or USA (where money & power still matters but probably much more than what he owns).
I would argue that money put the tate brothers in prison 2x times. The case is falling apart and the worst part if those ladies lied to get him in trouble they will suffer no jail time for their fraudulent claims. Thats the real crime!
If you say “the case is falling apart enough times,” it probably becomes the truth.
Probably.
dont tell me he is your role model
The real crime right here is your awful grammar
When I start making too much sense people always want to change the subject.

If you have a son you should be worried as well! Im scared for my son in this crazy world!

My fucking sides! 🤣
If you had a son you wouldn’t be laughing. We use to protect our girls from the boys but now its the opposite.
I think you need to touch some grass bro
Sometimes I wonder what it’s like to be this detached from reality.
I pity you.
Thats the same way i feel about you. This shit happens all the time… you just ignore it?
Nothing in that article indicates the case is “falling apart”. Stop grasping at straws to justify your misogyny.

800k users? How?
I know a big part of his scam is constantly hyping up artificial scarcity, and that if you ever stop paying you get permabanned. So it’s possible a number of users might be just the same people but with glasses or fake mustaches, but it’s still an outrageous number of people. Sad.
We also elected orange Hitler. AGAIN. Nothing surprises me anymore.
Pandering to male insecurity works.
See, this is what the Matt Gaetz hacker would do if they actually had it
Oh shit, there’s a database of the easily influenced with expendable income?
I guarantee the vast majority are around 14 years old
How many 14 year olds have $50 per month going spare?
Potentially more 14 year olds than 34 year olds.
Kids got allowances but no bills and most Americans out here living paycheck to paycheck
Time to become a scammer and financially ruin the kind of dumb men who would fall for this?
That would be over half of the male population in the U.S.
It would be morally indefensible not to!
I don’t know.
I think alienation is what drove droves of young men to this clown, so perhaps we shouldn’t try and alienate them more by scamming them and try and understand what the appeal of Tate was/is and work to fix that.
I think i read something or maybe listened to a podcast, where they theorized that Tate got his audience around the time when Jordan Peterson left the “guardian of young men” role. I think it kinda stands to reason that young men don’t really have decent men as mentors or role models these days.
No, no, no. Tate is scamming them and they love it. They need scammed until they get their fill. In the meantime, why not profit like Tate, Alex Jones, Tim Pool and Glen Beck? Maybe sell some nice, Freedom Ass Tanning lotion.
I only steal from corporations, however bad the individual may be. That’s just my moral compass though.
And only if the corporation is big enough. Don’t steal from your local corner store.
And also, don’t steal for profit.
I work at a hardware store, and if you steal some small shit like a file/screwdriver/whatever, you’re good. If I see you stealing 5k in light fixtures, tools, and batteries, I’ll get my bonus thank you very much.
Corporation by definition is a large company or group of companies.
I would class my local corner shop as stealing from people, as in it’s an individual or families livelihood.
I agree on not taking the piss though and stealing £5k in light fixtures. If only corporations would have such limitations in their theft.
Sadly many people pony up for these scams out of desperation despite being unable to afford them.
I sometimes work for a guy who thinks women shouldn’t be allowed to vote. He’s genuinely kind, but not at all academic. It is entirely the fault of low-effort internet bullshit like this. It’s actually very upsetting to see somebody poisoned by social media in real-time.
It is entirely the fault of low-effort internet bullshit like this.
People like Andrew Tate deserve part of the blame for propagating this kind of message, sure. But your client who thinks women shouldn’t be allowed to vote is a bad person, and his moral failing is entirely his own. He doesn’t deserve pity because he’s uneducated and falling for propaganda. He’s a sexist piece of shit who thinks women deserve fewer rights than men. Don’t make up excuses for him. He’s a grown man with agency over himself. He chose his path.
Group think and tribalism is very powerful. I used to be a Trump supporter and I remember thinking about how women were more likely to vote for progressive candidates with the conclusion that perhaps they shouldn’t be doing that. I now very deeply regret being part of that and I’m so grateful I broke free of all that nonsense. Monkey see, monkey do is very true. That’s why it’s important that our leaders demonstrate good behavior and set a good example for everyone.
I’m sorry you have to work for him, and I’m doubly sorry for any women who have to work with him. He’s not genuinely kind. It doesn’t take an academic to see half the human population as humans deserving of the same rights as the other half.
I agree about how upsetting it’s been though. My neigbour and I used to share bbq over the fence and shoot the shit about his life. Now he’s got crazy eyes and legit thinks and says that my wife and I are evil witches (and whatever qanonsense his feed fed him yesterday). I miss the peace I had in my own backyard pre-2016, but here we are.
btw, a lot of effort goes into the misogynist fascist takeover of our public spaces (including online). None of this just happened because (for example, one genesis myth is) low income white boys were bored on the internet. They’ve been groomed for hate and it’s all deliberate.
I think if you ask people why enough times and just say that doesn’t make sense, they find the flaw in their own poor judgments
Yeah, no. People don’t work that way. Once people have adopted these kinds of beliefs that are overtly divorced from reality, telling them that their views don’t make sense usually just hardens their convictions. Being told that they are wrong comes across as evidence that they are right. It validates the “they don’t want you to know this” mentality of people who choose various “red pill” social philosophies.
I guess I just don’t meet that type of person enough. It could also be that many social media accounts are bots or agents, so there was never any chance of convincing them of anything, or any expectation of reasonable behavior
The Daily Dot was provided with approximately 794,000 usernames for what are believed to be the site’s current and former members, as well as the contents of the platform’s 221 public and 395 private chat servers. […] The Real World claims it currently has over 113,000 active users. If accurate, the site at minimum would generate upwards of $5,650,000 every month.
Jesus, why is this bullshit that large?
I mean, that’s about one moderately sized cities worth of people out of probably most of the world, since I assume they don’t only serve US customers
Edit: for context the state of Nebraska, famously the least populous state in the union has about 1.9 million residents

They said capitalism breeds innovation. They just didn’t specify what kind of innovation.
It’s always bend you over and take it kind though
Money laundering.
