The manufacturer of spyware filed a lawsuit against the hosting company because of the stolen data.
Brainstack has filed a lawsuit against FlokiNet, a DDoSecrets hosting provider, claiming that the site ddosecrets.com stolen personal and corporate data of mSpy has been placed.
Brainstack is a manufacturer of mSpy spyware that specializes in mobile phone surveillance software. In July, the organization's data was stolen after a hacker stole the database of the Zendesk support forum.
The data leak affected millions of customer requests, including personal information, emails, and attachments with personal documents. The event was particularly significant due to the fact that the stolen data contained extremely confidential information about users who use the app to spy on their loved ones without their consent.
The FlokiNet team emphasizes that such appeals are often a censorship tool used to suppress the media, NGOs, and activists. According to the service, this is another example of how data protection laws can be used to hide the truth, and not to protect people.
In response to mSpy's complaint, DDoSecrets said it refused to delete the data, citing the importance of disclosing information about the company's questionable practices. In the past, mSpy has already been noticed in data protection violations, and this incident only confirms the organization's desire to hide its actions from the public.
DDoSecrets emphasizes that the public interest should prevail over corporate interests, especially when it comes to disclosing information related to the violation of rights and freedoms.
The DDoSecrets team says it will not allow other companies to "use legal mechanisms to hide their activities and suppress criticism." DDoSecrets will continue to publish data in the public interest and encourages other companies to follow ethical standards and operate in full transparency.
Back in 2018, mSpy mistakenly leaked the data of all its users. The victims of the incident were both mSpy customers and those who were spied on. The data included company user names and credentials, iCloud account information, and WhatsApp and Facebook messages.
