The sensitive data of several Israeli athletes in the Paris Olympic Games was published on Telegram in an alleged doxing attack on Friday.
A hacking group calling itself “Zeus” (likely a nod to the Games’ Greek origins) is allegedly responsible, and also purportedly leaked the military status of Israeli athletes on social media a day prior.
Good. Many of these “athletes” served in the israeli occupation forces and will have participated in human rights abuses against Palestinians which have now become completely normalized in that society.
Israel should not be participating in these games It is a stain on the Olympics.
“Good”? I’ve seen some really strange takes here, but this is wild. I’m pretty sure Israel has compulsory service for nearly all citizens, so serving in the IDF isn’t exactly a choice they would have necessarily made willingly. To suggest that they deserve to be doxxed for something they had no say in is absurd.
Point your anger at the right people.
Fuck that. They have an international platform to say something against the ongoing genocide and are instead supporting it by participating under the Israeli flag.

Big “I was just following orders” energy here.
Why “athletes” in scare quotes?
The only reason Russia isn’t directly participating in the games is their athletes are dopers. You think otherwise Russia is a stand-up country? Yet their “athletes” (?) are there.
