alt Hacker NewsWait do you reckon that could be fictive? The thought didn't cross my mind and I had a blast reading it. I sure hope it was real.

FWIW a friend of mine who's part of DN42 told me they had seen it live (but didn't pay much attention) and that it was a bit funny when I shared that link with him.
I think the PR from an agent sounds legit, but the whole part once the alleged operator joins in sounds fishy. Wouldn't be surprised if someone saw the PR comments and used the username mentioned by the agent to troll around in the chat. It would also mean that the AWS creds were probably stolen and their expiration date was truly a hard limit for the whole operation.
