The GTA VI leaks are breaking the internet. Security researchers have seen this before.

A hacker or insider leaked GTA VI gameplay footage before launch, triggering Take-Two DMCA subpoenas against Discord, Google, Microsoft and X.

The persona "CyberLeek" published stolen Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay footage and a manifesto, in what experts call a familiar data extortion playbook with monetization via watermarks, crypto wallets and a memecoin. Take-Two Interactive obtained DMCA subpoenas against Discord, Microsoft and X, and sent copyright notices to Google, treating the case like an insider threat investigation. GTA VI is projected to earn $3.3–5.2 billion in launch-week sales, raising financial and reputational stakes. Related leak websites went offline after the subpoenas.

Pegasus, NoviSpy variant spyware found on devices of Serbian activists

Researchers confirmed the first 2026 Pegasus infection and a new NoviSpy variant on 14 Serbian activists, likely surveillance by Serbian authorities ahead of elections.

Citizen Lab confirmed with high probability the first forensically confirmed Pegasus infection of 2026, on a Serbian student activist hacked via a zero-click exploit between December of last year and January. Amnesty International confirmed two devices infected with a new NoviSpy variant, and the SHARE Foundation documented 14 targets including a member of parliament and a local government official, the largest documented spyware wave in Serbia to date. Evidence points to Serbian police or intelligence services, with NoviSpy infections occurring around police detention ahead of key local and parliamentary elections. Apple threat notifications preceded the findings, and updated iOS versions break the exploit chain.
