Iggy Azalea is in a whole lot of trouble with hacker group Anonymous after the "Fancy" rapper made some racist remarks on Twitter recently. The hackers threatened to release a sex tape of Azalea unless she apologizes for her actions.
However, Azalea is claiming that there's no sex tape of her in the wild, but from all indication, the hackers seem to think otherwise. They claim that if she fails to do the right thing, they will release an image taken from the tape to prove that the tape is real.
It is not certain what the rapper plans to do, but she has been asked to apologize to fellow female rapper Azealia Banks and the #BlackLivesMatter movement. From what we understand, at the time of the threat, she had 48 hours to comply, but will she ever concede?
"MESSAGE: @IGGYAZALEA, you have exactly 48 hours from now to release a statement apologizing to @AzealiaBanks and the protesters in NYC..." according to one the tweets captured by Vulture. "You are guilty of misappropriating black culture, insulting peaceful protesters, and making light of Eric Garner's death. @IGGYAZALEA."
The message went on to add that the hackers of the tape said that what they have is nothing compared to something else.
"There's an X rated tape of you, we bet you'd certainly don't want public, are we right? @IGGYAZALEA....and this is nothing. Comply or else."
We hope this doesn't get out of hand because the leaking of private content is a thing that should never happen. Folks should not fight fire with fire because the trend will never end.
In just a few months, we've witnessed the huge celebrity nude picture leak, and then the massive Sony fiasco that is taking the movie and cyber security industry by storm. Do we need another? We don't, so hopefully Anonymous will refrain from falling to the same level of other hackers out there.
In our minds, there are other ways to deal with things rather than sending threats and releasing private content on the Internet.
