A hacker has stolen source code for the graphics processor in the upcoming Xbox Series X games console and is demanding a $100million ransom for the files.
Computer component manufacturer AMD first confirmed the theft in a brief statement posted on their website.
The company said they had initially been contacted in December by a person claiming to have 'test files related to a subset of our current and future graphics products.'

Stolen or pirated?
How long until AMD gets bought out by Nvidia?
Fuck you, I wasn't here for it.
>Have all your special shit on one network
>Have no buckups or have even those unsecured AND on the same network
>Can never ever prove that he hasnt copied all that shit elsewhere
Reads like an Uplink news headline
Why would the hacker charge more than a corporate spy would cost?
i have no idea how real this is because its from torrent freak but:
>The culprit behind the leak spoke with TorrentFreak, and claims to have stolen the GPU source code from a computer she hacked. “The source code was unexpectedly achieved from an unprotected computer/server through some exploits. I later found out about the files inside it. They weren’t even protected properly or even encrypted with anything, which is just sad,” she told the publication.
>In an email, the hacker also messaged PCMag and said: “I haven’t spoken about AMD about it (the breach) because I am pretty sure instead of accepting their mistake and moving on, they will try to sue me, so why not just leak it to everyone.”
>she hacked.
>she
what does tht entail?
he could release it so that people manufacture their own?
He has no choice but to release it. He'll never get a dime for it.
>she
Oh boy here we go
What exactly can you do with this?
If I can pirate Xbox games after it launches then yay if guess. Otherwise who cares
>She
>hacked by a tranny
oof
user, I...
based?
retard idiot low iq dumb as bricks dumbass
Can't really do anything with it. All the ransom did is get one of the government alphabet agencies involved to hunt the hacker down because holy shit this is a really stupid idea.
>What exactly can you do with this?
besides the obvious free trade secrets i would imagine you could write malware to fuck up people's gpus and xbox systems.
>She (male)
What's dumb about my post though? Enlighten me.
inb4 Dr Evil
Enlighten you? thats a lifetimes worth of work for your dumbass
Keep talking, Boco.
>she
Maybe she will put a bitcoin miner in every xbox
I mean, 100 million? Joke writes itself.
>she
Imagine having your source code for your new toy stolen by a fucking tranny
>Someone stole info about AMD's newest and more powerful hardware.
>Xbox got caught up in it, but Sony didn't
>instead of accepting their mistake and moving on
What autism logic is this?
>stealing from a big corp
>then ransoming it
hacker's a moron. MS will most likely send glowniggers and mossad to rape his ass. He should just dumped it on the web for free
then The emulators for PS5 and SeX are about to be happened right away.
So, will this push the Sexbox launch back to next year?
based tranny for making the emulator of PS5 & SeX more possible
Dont they use 2 different types of CPUs?
Oh fuck guess I'm buying an Xbox now, I can pirate games day fucking 1 baby
All aboard the Xbox Pirate Train Yas Forums!
Can I get a retweet
>Faggot gets source code
>Doesn't just immediately leak it
>Chance they'll never be able to
I hate people.
You can pirate all of the SEX's games on a PC anyway, at least for the first 2 years of the systems life.
The hacker stole the info about AMD's newest GPUs that were using RDNA2, that why the Xbox also got it.
Yeah but I don't have a PC just a laptop, this way I don't have to spend 1000 dollars for a PC
Jesus imagine getting your servers ganked by a tranny and losing millions because of it
J U S T
>she
The hacker know as Yas Forums?
whats the big deal? just let him release it and use the NSA to kick his shit in as punishment
this hacker would have already leaked it had they actually had the means to do so otherwise fuck off
>her
You are gonna be seeing this thread for months friend
because the 100 million thing is fake news
>she
Heheheheh
It's a fucking tranny.
Never. Their CPU division is doing too well.
The only big deals that interest you are the ones at McDonald’s Jonah.
>NOOOOOOOOO YOU HAVE TO KEEP MAKING THE SAME SMASH THREAD 24/7 NOT ACTUAL VIDEO GAME NEEEEWWWWWWSSSSS
>him
Uhh, transphobic much?
We should thank that tranny for the PS5/SeX emulator to be made early than expected.
they should open source that anyway, maybe then they wouldnt have such shit drivers
>What's $100 mill to a mother fucka like me?
Asking for too much. I would literally just ask for 500,000. That's enough for me to live comfortably
Wow It's fucking nothing
Post >yfw Day 0 emulation
>It's fucking nothing
not even close
AMD is just coping
>Based on the files leaked so far
Which any proper hacker would be almost nothing compared to the files they really have
Then why AMD sent its team of lawyers after "him" if it is fucking nothing? Too excessive.
First a Tranny insides capital one, now AMD when will companies realize that hiring mentally deranged people is fucking dangerous.
So which of you desperate PC cucks did it?
Even if the whole SoC had leaked day 0 emulation wouldn't be possible. There's still a fuckton of custom shit in there that the system relies on that would need REing
Tranny did it, but buying the next gen console is pointless cuz with the source, the PS5/SeX emulator will be made early than expected.
I can't wait for drinking the tears of console peasants.
They don't care cuz MS and Sony are planning to port their games to PC anyway.
b-but FP16 man told me PS5 was RDNA2!!
