General Info: thedarkoverlord: a hacking group that has done a couple of minor breaches with major media and intel agency attention. Probable Limited Hangout Operation. Considering their main advertisers are intelligence agencies they are likely assets/fronts of those intelligence agencies. Add to that the longwinded articles and referring to themselves as a “Professional Adversarial Threat Group” which is intelligence community jargon.
