Goddamn, it really did hit Forbes. Now I'm really interested in how Respawn will handle this one.

This is a contributor post, not a Forbes official article.

I read here recently that the rich people who pay attention to Forbes for investment information avoid all Forbes contributor content and focus only official article from Forbes staff.

I don't know how true that is, but if you believe it then until a forbes staffer writes about it in an official capacity, it hasn't actually hit Forbes.

I understand you, but they're not the ones who matter here tbh; it's other laymen. I don't use Forbes, I just know what Forbes is. Looking at that page, I'd have no idea what you're talking about. The url is Forbes, the author's name is there, and is labelled as a senior contributor. For most of us: "we hit Forbes boys!"

I feel like the hackers got what they wanted out of it.

They definitely did. This will easily be the top Apex news for at least a week.
