Who would have thought that a group of individuals who socialize by expressing themselves through fursonas and fursuits would be the ones taking down conservative think tanks and organizations that oppose transgender rights?
As I delved deeper into the news surrounding this hacking incident, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration for these hackers.
