The fact that the hackers have added revoking the API changes to their list of demands... 😂

Ethical hacking? 🤔

Does not make it ethical, though. I hope he doesn't pay because I imagine DMs between admins and powermods are included in this data pack, and oh boy if those do get leaked it's not going to look good for either side.
