Everyone’s talking about… Orange is the New Black
A hacker has leaked 10 episodes from the forthcoming season of Orange is the New Black.
NBC News reports that a hacker calling themselves ‘thedarkoverlord’ has released episodes from the season after Netflix failed to meet their ransom demands.
The hack or hackers — who go by “thedarkoverlord” — said they had demanded a “modest” ransom from Netflix to stop the leak, “yet they continue to remain unresponsive.”
“With this information in mind (and the fact that leaving people on cliffhangers isn’t fun) we’ve decided to release Episodes 2-10 of ‘Orange Is The New Black’ Season 5 after many lengthy discussions at the office where alcohol was present,” the group said on an online computer code sharing site.
Netflix has confirmed that a third party production company had its “security compromised” and stated that the relevant authorities are now involved.
