A data leak has apparently occurred at Disney. The self-proclaimed "hacktivists" from the group "NullBulge" claim in a blog post to have leaked 1.2 TByte of data from the internal Slack infrastructure. In total, it is said to be 10,000 Slack channels, including all messages, files, unpublished projects, code, login data and API access. Disney is currently investigating the case, as the company confirmed to the Reuters news agency.
NullBulge is committed to "protecting the rights of artists" and combating "crypto promotion", "A.I. artwork" and all forms of theft. In the past, Disney has been criticized for its use of AI image generators, for example in the Disney+ series "Secret Invasion". Disney is said to have put graphic designers out of work as a result. This criticism comes in the context of major work stoppages in Hollywood: last year, 11,500 screenwriters from the Writers Guild of America went on strike against the film industry over concerns about the use of AI, among other things. The actors' union SAG-AFTRA also took part in the industrial action, which led to delays in numerous film and series productions.
Recently, NullBulge also claimed to have compromised the popular ComfyUI_LLMVISION extension of the AI image generator Stable Diffusion, as reported by 404-Media. The extension allows Stable Diffusion users to integrate language models such as GPT-4 and Claude 3 into the Stable Diffusion interface ComfyUI. NullBulge left a message in which they pointed out the account's lack of security and reiterated their rejection of AI-generated art.
