What do you do when you’ve successfully hacked into the official SoundCloud account of one of the world’s most prominent electronic music producers and performers? You upload tracks by the kind of bubblegum
pop artist that producer is famously against.
As Mixmag reports, a hacker collective by the name OurMine managed to infiltrate Deadmau5’s official SoundCloud account yesterday, threatening to leak the producer’s personal information and uploading a handful of Selena Gomez tracks to his page.
It’s the kind of troll that Deadmau5 himself would come up with if he was a member of a mysterious hacker collective and not the rather frustrated individual at the receiving end of a cybercrime attack. Of course, the producer took it all in stride.
Despite OurMine threatening via Twitter to leak Deadma5’s phone numbers, addresses, credit card information, and even nude photos
to the public, the producer just reminded the hacker group that they’ve
committed a felony and most of the stolen data is irrelevant.
The producer insisted the phone number they threatened to leak hasn’t been used in years, he’s already sold the condo at the address they acquired, and the sensitive financial information apparently amounts to his accountant’s office address.
Deadmau5, real name Joel Zimmerman, actually congratulated the hackers on a job well done and told fans that the situation has been resolved pending an audit of his web presence. He’s already launched a new SoundCloud page.
