Andrew Tate is a well-known misogynist and is also accused of involvement in an organised crime group and human trafficking. Lovely. However, house arrest doesn't stop him from running businesses, including an "online university" – a platform offering "advanced training and mentoring." Through the website, Tate provides guidance on how to make money and offers advice on health, fitness, and relationships with women.

"The Real World" was attacked on Thursday, 21st November, when Andrew Tate was streaming the show "Emergency Meeting." Hackers provided the portal "Daily Dot" with a list of nearly 800,000 former and current users of the platform, as well as a record of nearly 325,000 emails of people who lost access due to failing to pay the regulatory fee of £40 per month.

Hackers mocked Andrew Tate and his followers

The individuals who conducted the attack reported that the site's security was ridiculously low. The hackers made their presence known by uploading a set of emojis into the system, which clearly drove Andrew Tate – the chief homophobe, transphobe, and misogynist – to a frenzy. Users were given the ability to send each other, among other things:

  • transgender flags,
  • a clenched feminist fist,
  • AI-generated images of Tate wrapped in a rainbow flag or with enhanced buttocks.

The hackers call their actions "hacktivism." They revealed that besides "male discussions about making money," one of the leading topics on the platform was promoting animosity towards the LGBT community.
