Doxbin is a pastebin used to post personal data (often referred to as doxing).[1]
Operators
[edit]In 2019, US journalist Brian Krebs reported: "The individual who appears to maintain the Doxbin... stated that he also was responsible for maintaining SiegeCulture, a white supremacist website that glorifies the writings of neo-Nazi James Mason".[2]
In July 2020, John William Kirby Kelley, who was involved in a neo-Nazi swatting conspiracy and a group associated with a neo-Nazi terrorist network known as Atomwaffen Division, as well as the Deadnet IRC channel and its participants, were linked to the group that maintains Doxbin.[3][4][5][6][clarification needed] According to federal prosecutors, the group maintains Doxbin to list past and potential swatting targets.[7]
Doxbin and Lapsus$
[edit]"White" was a founding leader of a ransomware group named Lapsus$ which had a list of data breaches from groups including Nvidia, T-Mobile, and Rockstar Games.
The feud between the former Doxbin owner "kt" and White had been ongoing since he leaked the Doxbin database.[8]
kt had eventually doxed White on January 8, 2022, and published his personal details onto Doxbin.[9]
White's house was raided on the morning of April 1st 2022 and earlier in December 2021, both in relation to Lapsus$.[10]
White was charged with:[11]
- Three counts of unauthorized access to a computer with intent to impair the reliability of data;
- One count of fraud by false representation;
- One count of unauthorized access to a computer with intent to hinder access to data;
- One count of causing a computer to perform a function to secure unauthorized access to a program.
