'Zeus' Hacker Group Strikes Israeli Olympic Athletes in Data Leak

The sensitive data of several Israeli athletes in the Paris Olympic Games was published on Telegram in an alleged doxing attack on Friday.

A hacking group calling itself "Zeus" (likely a nod to the Games' Greek origins) is allegedly responsible, and also purportedly leaked the military status of Israeli athletes on social media a day prior.

You're not stupid; that's exactly what they're doing.

I'm not though? They're Israelis that have the platform to speak out against the genocide and are not doing so, but instead are 'advertising' for their country.

Do you honestly think they're allowed to do something like that?

Probably not, however depending on how they phrase it I doubt there would be extreme consequences and even then, there have been countless examples of athletes refusing to return to their home countries and instead staying in the host countries.
