NO THIS IS THE GREAT PP HACK or The Last of us but it is on a website and there are hackers instead of clickers

TBH this whole hacking thing makes me upset and anxious. I wonder if this will soon lead to the end of NG.

Newgrounds has been hacked in the past, don't know how long its been since the last time something like this happened though. You can read more about that here: https://newgrounds.fandom.com/wiki/Hacking_and_Phishing


Chances are, Newgrounds will survive it. Seems like the hackers just want attention from what I can tell and have took whatever vulnerable accounts they can find. At this point, I'm feeling like it might be a good idea for Newgrounds to enter planned maintenance and try to fix things while the site is in an offline state. Maybe also seeing where sitewide security can be improved, and getting the site audited by pentesters.


IMO, the statements the hackers are making do not sound like "winning" to me. Of course, you already have to live a sad life to hack NG of all places.

Well, this is way worse as Duck Division.


I hope the hacker gets arrested by the end of the year.

@NightfallGloam

2FA is highly recommended, especially if you’re an artist account that will be a larger target.

I use 2FA whenever possible! I think I was one of the early adoptors when Newgrounds added it.

Thank you. I put on 2FA a few days ago due to the recent hacking incidents. Hopefully those people don't cause anymore trouble :(
