    Message from the hacktivist, if anyone’s curious:

    I’m disclosing a list containing the details of 6,681 organizations that applied for contracts with the US Department of Homeland Security.
    This data was taken from the Office of Industry Partnership at https://oip.dhs.gov/.

    Why hack the DHS? I can think of a couple Pretti Good reasons!
    I’m releasing this because the DHS is killing us and people deserve to know which companies support them and what they’re working on.

    This data includes:
    • Company names
    • Company URLs
    • Names of various employees and sometimes their titles
    • Business and potentially personal addresses
    • Employee phone numbers
    • Employee email addresses
    • Tax identification numbers, including employer identification numbers and potentially SSNs
    • Other government contractor IDs, such as UEI numbers and CAGE codes
    • Some internal comments by DHS staff regarding things like updates to the information above

    Examples of companies in the list:

    • Palantir
    • Anduril
    • Microsoft
    • Raytheon
    • Oracle
    • L3Harris
    • HBGary

    Additionally, I’ve included a second list containing information on which of these companies won contracts and what those contracts were for.
    The information in this second list may be less sensitive, but it doesn’t appear in the public section of https://oip.dhs.gov/ as far as I could tell.
    I’ve included the second list for reference and comparison to the first. Both are likely incomplete.

    There are some entities in this list that I take no issue with, such as NASA, the various universities, water safety organizations, etc.
    However, people deserve to know about them, too, and these entities likewise deserve to know that they’re part of the breach.
    Furthermore, there are also details from government agencies, including the FBI and the DHS itself.
    What you do with this data is entirely up to you. Thanks for checking this out!

    To the DHS:
    You are neither increasing the security of our homeland nor are you secure yourselves.
    How does it feel to be hunted?

    To the contractors:
    You wage war just to make a buck. I do this for free.
    How does it feel to be spied on?

    To everyone else, thanks for reading and good luck.

    Can somebody hack the Epstein files too? Be sure to redact the parts that the Congress asked DoJ to, before publishing it.
