The Dark Overlord
A The Dark Overlord (former Twitter handle @tdo_h4ck3rs) Professional Adversarial Threat Group TheDarkOverlord Solutions LLC is an international hacker organization which garners significant publicity through cybercrime database penetration of high profile targets and subsequent public demands for ransom to prevent the release of potentially embarrassing documents.[1]TDOL gained significant international exposure with the leak of unreleased episodes of the Netflix series “Orange is the New Black.” [2] On December 31, 2018, TDOL announced the Lloyds of London and Silverstein Properties "9/11 Papers" hack on Twitter, with thousands of incriminating documents to be released in stages unless US$2,000.000 in bitcoin were paid to 192ZobzfZxAkacLGmg9oY4M9y8MVTPxh7U.[3]TDOL was subsequently banned from many social media platforms including Twitter, Reddit, Pastebin and Steemit.[4]As of January 12, 2019, the bitcoin blockchain explorer revealed that less than 1% of the ransom had been paid and the payment sources may have been 9/11 researchers, not the targets of the hack. As a result, TDOL continues to release encrypted files and their private keys to the public in stages. The situation develops by the hour as more documents are released. It remains to be seen whether the documents contain anything that could challenge the official narrative of 9/11.[5][6]
