I’m writing to update the Gab community with what we know about the breach that occurred this week. As I have already mentioned we are conducting our own internal investigation. We are also working with federal law enforcement to assist with their investigation of the breach, criminal ransom demands and the numerous threats of violence that were directed at our team. Finally, we have hired one of the best rapid response security teams in the world to investigate the breach.
