The common denominator is Slack, there is something fishy about Slack, some people might have breached them and are able to join what ever server they want

Hence how they managed to download the whole "leaked" content from Slack message history

Uber, now Rockstar, if i was wearing my conspiracy theorist hat, i would say it's that secretive group that operate Microsoft, either they want to force them to use azure, or, to spread FUD to facilitate a purchase, but that's too much for HN, i'll loose this account, again lol

The common denominator is hardware, there is something fishy about hardware, some people might have breached it and are able to join what ever hardware they want.

Sounds pretty silly to pick a random thing and say its the culprit huh?

Nothing can be more silly then a 16yo teenager from the UK leaking GTA 6 :)

There is more to it than these pseudo rumors

I don't disagree that slack is a common denominator, but slack is owned by Salesforce and Heroku was recently hacked via AWS. If anything here is fishy, it's Salesforce owned/operated services.
