Hacker admits to leaking stolen Supreme Court data on Instagram

Hacker Brags About Leaking Supreme Court Data on Instagram – Because Why the Hell Not?

Oh for fuck’s sake, here we go again. Some attention-seeking digital clown decided it’d be a great idea to swipe a pile of data from the Philippine Supreme Court and then, wait for it… post the damn leak announcement on Instagram. Because apparently, data breaches are just another influencer trend now — forget selling detox tea, just sell other people’s private info instead.

This genius goes by the handle “@ph1ns” and allegedly got the goods by compromising the court’s systems. The stolen files? Oh, just a few sensitive internal documents, some employee info, and other crap that really shouldn’t be sitting around like a cheap buffet for hackers. Naturally, they went around bragging like a twit, even claiming responsibility for a bunch of other leaks. Because nothing screams “elite hacker” like publicly confessing to crimes on a social media app owned by Meta. Bravo, you absolute fuckwit.

The hack apparently dumped gigabytes of data online, and the Supreme Court had to scramble like their collective arses were on fire to contain the mess. Authorities are now “investigating,” which basically means someone’s about to get an uncomfortable knock on the door while their router bursts into flames from the forensics sweep.

Honestly, the whole thing’s a walking, talking, keystroking cautionary tale: if you’re enough of a bloody idiot to brag about your illegal shit online, you deserve the digital equivalent of a Darwin Award. Meanwhile, the rest of us sysadmins get to clean up the mess and lock down yet another bunch of poorly patched systems. Cheers for that.

Reminds me of that time a junior admin thought it’d be “fun” to post the company Wi-Fi password on Twitter because “transparency.” Spent my weekend crawling through logs, nuking accounts, and explaining basic operational security with the subtlety of a brick through a window. Some people shouldn’t be allowed near keyboards.
