rockstar says a hacking group tried to blackmail them. no, they did not say cyberleek

rockstar dropped a weird detail into the glasgow tribunal yesterday: in its opening note, the company said a hacking group tried to blackmail rockstar "in the last few weeks." that's the public claim. that's also where the certainty ends. rockstar did not name the group. it did not say this was cyberleek. it did not say the blackmail attempt caused the august gameplay leaks. those are three different blanks and the internet is very capable of filling all three with the same username by dinner. could there be a connection? sure. show me the connection first.
