Hackers Just Leaked the Names of 92,000 'Freedom Convoy' Donors

[brooklynite]

Source: Vice News

The Christian crowdfunding site that helped raise $8.7 million for the anti-vax “freedom convoy” in Canada was hacked on Sunday night, and the names and personal details of over 92,000 donors were leaked online.

The database of 92,845 donors is no longer available on the site, but VICE News was able to review a copy of the data.

While some of the donors did not provide their names—such as the person behind the current top donation of $215,000—the vast majority did provide them, including American software billionaire Thomas Siebel, who donated $90,000 to the “freedom convoy.”

While GiveSendGo does allow donors to make their donations public, many chose to use their company’s name or omit their names entirely, so the leaked database contains a lot of information that was never meant to be shared, data like donors’ full names, email addresses, and location.

1. 😂😂😂-from the article

snip-"Analysis of the leaked data by extremism researcher Amarnath Amarasingam shows that while the majority of donors come from the U.S. (56%) and Canada (29%), there are also thousands of donations from overseas, including the U.K., Australia, and Ireland."

snip-"One donor who submitted from a Department of Justice email address appears to have donated $25 on two separate occasions. VICE News was unable to verify that the named person sent the donations, but the name provided matches a current employee of the DOJ, based on their LinkedIn profile.

After submitting a second donation, the person claiming to be a DOJ employee wrote:

“Thank you, Truckers! It is working. Others have taken your lead like Australia, New Zealand, UK. I think the reason all these blue states in the USA have stopped the mask mandates is there were rumors that truckers here in the USA were going to start a protest starting in CA to DC, and the local and federal governments did not want that. And it is an election year.”

😂😂😂😂

[aggiesal]

13. I thought DOJ had to be nonpartisan? ...

They can work there and be partisan, but they can't use their .gov email and be partisan.
They would have to use a private email to be partisan.
This person could lose their job.

[irisblue]

16. HR for that office is going to be having several conversations I bet.

[aggiesal]

19. But her emails! ...

This would be the inverse.
Using government servers to do private communications.
This was the MO for Pendejo45's administration and I believe illegal.

[wnylib]

38. Maybe that is one of the problems that

Garland is dealing with regarding investigations.

[Justice matters.]

58. Insurrection moles in the system.

No doubt there must be some stuck in there who slow-walk investigations on the orange mob boss.

[NotHardly]

20. Thomas Siebel the wealthy idiot Proud Boy Billioniare type folks... here he is

[link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Siebel|

[SleeplessinSoCal]

30. His "Philanthropy" probably means helping to make pandemics longer.

[NJCher]

35. How

does a guy that smart not see through a dimwit like Sarah Palin?

If you read his bio, he's incredibly talented, smart, and generous. Not even bad looking.

However, as I have found with many super-intelligent people, there can be a skewing of their intelligence that is baffling. Even a touch of mental illness in some shape, form, or another, but it messes up their world view.

I wonder if he is one of those.

[Lithos]

37. I would disagree.

His "smart" comes from making money as an Oracle executive and then spinning off his own company which he sold back to Oracle. His claim to fame at Oracle was as a star salesman, not as a tech guy. Even then, his selling back to his arch-nemesis was a sign he had blown it as they had almost driven Siebel into the ground as he really had no business acumen. He is a living example of Dunning-Kruger.

As for being a GQP dimwit - he also has long been a Republican donor. He even had Marc Racicot on the Siebel board of directors.

[NJCher]

55. don't think so

I have a background in teaching and working with gifted and high IQ students. What is not commonly known is the gifted/high IQ can excel in a multitude of areas. They are multi-talented, which, if you read this bio, you can see this individual does.

[Mz Pip]

2. Not sure why they need all that money.

How much does it cost to sit in a truck blocking traffic?

[L. Coyote]

3. Maybe to run a troll farm in Moscow.

[Fiendish Thingy]

7. Food, water, fuel to run truck's heater and blast horn continuously.

Somebody spent money to bring in saunas and hot tubs too.

And I imagine legal fees down the road.

[PatSeg]

25. Plus they aren't earning any money

while participating in the "Freedom Convoy".

[lagomorph777]

36. They'll get those Putin paychecks.

Bet on it.

[EYESORE 9001]

18. To an owner-operator

parking your rig for any length of time is a costly operation.

[bucolic_frolic]

4. Hope they confiscate all the funds

Shouldn't it be illegal to donate to someone to essentially commit a crime?

[brooklynite]

15. Any crimes committed are Canadian...

Its not up to a US entity to implement penalties.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

26. Any funds that cross the border intended for the criminal enterprise can be confiscated

That is up to Canadians, yes.

But it is time for USA to help neighbor by designating the criminal occupiers a terrorist organization:

18 U.S. Code § 2339B
(a) Prohibited Activities.—
(1) Unlawful conduct.—
Whoever knowingly provides material support or resources to a foreign terrorist organization, or attempts or conspires to do so, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both, and, if the death of any person results, shall be imprisoned for any term of years or for life. To violate this paragraph, a person must have knowledge that the organization is a designated terrorist organization (as defined in subsection (g)(6)), that the organization has engaged or engages in terrorist activity (as defined in section 212(a)(3)(B) of the Immigration and Nationality Act), or that the organization has engaged or engages in terrorism (as defined in section 140(d)(2) of the Foreign Relations Authorization Act, Fiscal Years 1988 and 1989).

[StClone]

64. Cool!

[bucolic_frolic]

56. Sometimes US financial law is enforced against US citizens offshore

depends on the violation. It can't be good for us to foment blockades overseas, though I don't know if any laws apply.

[turbinetree]

5. How much does it cost to be a software developer trying to take down governments

because being a libertarian is my way or the highway, he even wrote a book and all the sellers say he is the best and so now that ego can jump right to fascism.......maybe the American Academy of Arts and Sciences can just remove him and place him on the watch list of being dangerous to society as a whole........just a thought....

[niyad]

40. ?????

6. LOL

Here is the tweet at the OP link with a portion of the video the hackers left for the GiveSendGo RW loon fundraising site after redirecting that site's URL to a different one -

The leaked data appears to include email addresses, IP addresses, zip codes, as well as names (although some users could have used fake names).

8. OMG Twitter showing the names/emails of big donors

Being released in this thread by AnneYMous:

63. The names are listed under the account but not in thread form.

They are also finding and reporting on those who accepted CEWS aka Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy.... for business/hiring assistance during Covid.

9. Putin thinks it up & dummies fund it, same ol story. nt

[oldsoftie]

10. OOPS! People forget hackers are everywhere nt

[ancianita]

11. Wondering if Siebel's AI applications could have been involved in social media campaigns.

He's highly awarded and admired by the Goldman Sachs corporate set on Wall Street, has gotten good sales on his books, and has had some dealings with Max Baucus and Jackie Speier.

He's just gung ho enough for capitalism to donate to anti-covid drama, I bet.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Siebel#Political_involvement

[ancianita]

12. Looks like "follow the money" is easier said than done.

[L. Coyote]

17. In this case, easier done than said perhaps.

One thing that the conservatives don't readily recognize, nerds are not fascists with few exceptions. But they rely on nerds to run servers, etc., so they will always have this weakness.

[ancianita]

21. They don't hold the personal account holder accountable? How else could 92,000 have

gotten their money into it? Now we have to find out what Canadian law says about the intent of the donors.

[L. Coyote]

22. I hope the hack provides the date of the donation, then they can be prosecuted.

Of course, Canada can subpoeana and investigate where they have jurisdiction.

[ancianita]

23. So GiveSendGo held the personal account? Deposited into the personal account? How are the 2 related?

This is why "follow the money" isn't always clearly provable unless a court subpoenas bank account activity summaries.

[GB_RN]

14. Oops...

For those who left names, to borrow a phrase, “That’s gonna leave a mark!”

[L. Coyote]

24. Not the brightest gang of fascists.

32. Just right now all you get is a lot of "404 Not Found"

[Bernardo de La Paz]

33. Just before I posted I did similar search for my results. I did not include the dot com. Also

"insurrection" is the wrong term to use to search directly on their site since they and their sheeple don't believe it was an insurrection.

My search was "givesendgo jan 6" without the quote marks.

[HUAJIAO]

42. All I find there now is--- 404 NOT FOUND

[Bernardo de La Paz]

46. Indeed. Search results still show & using 3 dot menu & Cached bottom right gets the pages. . . nt

Also you can right-click and get the data listings "by zip code."

[Chellee]

41. I am both surprised and relieved

that no one from my zip code donated. Relieved because, "Yay! My neighbors aren't funding terrorism." And surprised, because there are some frothing at the mouth loons 'round these parts who definitely would.

[FakeNoose]

51. If you snoop around on those blue dots

... most of them are $500 donations or less. Yes there are a few big ones, but the majority are under the radar.

Still it's disturbing how this thing snowballed so quickly.

[Delphinus]

60. Thanks

This is going to be tomorrow morning (tired right now).

[SergeStorms]

52. So many from upstate New York!

It makes me ashamed to be a New Yorker.

For all of you who think New York is a "liberal" state, now you can see what we're up against. If it wasn't for NYC and smaller cities, this state would be cherry red.

[Smackdown2019]

31. Wonder if companies that were hurt

I wonder of the companies that were hurt over the protest could go after the companies that supported the violators financially.

[wnylib]

47. Seems like they should be able to sue

for lost revenue. Also, the employees who could not work during that time.

[CaptainTruth]

39. I downloaded the spreadsheet last night.

Links to it were on Twitter. I looked at it a little bit on my phone (I was in bed reading on the phone) & it was hard to see much of it, I'll take a look on the desktop today. I did notice someone donated in the name of Joe Biden.

I was more involved in tracking the movement of a bunch of US military aircraft. We had a lot of assets in the air last night, & I could only see the ones that wanted to be seen (had ADS-B transponders on). Based on the number of KC-135 tankers (for refuelling) that were up over/around Europe & the patterns they flew I'd say there were certainly more aircraft up that weren't announcing their presence (transponders off).

[mountain grammy]

45. After that elephant tried to kill him

you'd think he'd rethink the republican party..

[SergeStorms]

50. What pisses me off is the U.S. donors.

Putin's stooges in the U.S. wanting to export their selfish, fascist bullshit across the border to a nice country.

Sorry, Canadians. I know you have your own uber-conservative shitheels, but not nearly as many as in the U.S. If our fascist malcontents had minded their own business this may have ended a lot sooner.

Please accept my most sincere apologies.

[FakeNoose]

53. Exactly! It sure looks like US dollars from shitbags are funding this

This is what they're spending their tax-breaks on?

[Trust_Reality]

54. Christian crowd funding site !!!

I've been saying for quite some time that Christians are anti-democracy. They seek to destroy democracy. They worship authoritarians and would prefer a "Christian" dictator. You know, like Trump - the guy who epitomizes Christian values.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

59. Well done Hackers!

65. Hacker white hats...

...the first 4 words. I'd like someone to dig into that issue, as well. Find out who is inside this shell.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

67. That's like donating to an assassin who's gunning for you and your family....

and so is donating money to the GOP in any form....
