Hackers expose thousands of donors to Canadian 'freedom convoy': report

.

Hackers leaked the names and personal details of more than 92,000 donors to the anti-vaccine "freedom convoy" that's occupying the Canadian capital.

Supporters raised $8.7 million for the truckers and other protesters through the Christian crowdfunding site GiveSendGo, and hackers found that many of the donors left violent or otherwise troubling messages alongside their contributions, reported Vice.

“We have 2A here in America send your mounties and see what happens,” “CABAL PIGLETS ARE CORRUPT CRIMINALS WHO NEED SEVERE PUNISHMENT UNDER LAW,” and “Death to all liberal traitors,” read some of the messages.

The database is no longer available online, but Vice News reviewed the data and saw the largest donation, $215,000, was made anonymously, but American software billionaire Thomas Siebel gave $90,000, and one person claiming to be a Department of Justice employee gave $25 twice.
