4chan, an infamous online forum, was taken offline earlier today after what appears to be a significant hack and has since been loading intermittently.
Members of the Soyjak.party imageboard (also known as The Party) have since claimed to be behind the attack. They also leaked screenshots of admin panels and a list of emails allegedly belonging to 4chan admins, moderators, and janitors (less privileged mods who help moderate the forums)."
"Tonight has been a very special night for many of us at the soyjak party. Today, April 14, 2025, a hacker, who has been in 4cuck's system for over a year, executed the true operation soyclipse, reopening /qa/, exposing personal information of various 4cuck staff, and leaking code from the site," one of them (using the handle Chud) said in a thread posted after 4chan was taken down.
