A hacker ( or hacker group ) known as The Dark Overlord ( TDO ) has leaked Attack.Databreach the first ten episodes of season 5 of the `` Orange Is The New Black '' show after two failed blackmail Attack.Ransom attempts , against Larson Studios and Netflix . TDO is one of the most well-known figures in today 's dwindling hacker landscape . He first appeared on the scene in late 2015 and made a name for himself by hacking Attack.Databreach healthcare organizations , stealing Attack.Databreach their data , and trying to extract ransoms Attack.Ransom from victims by threatening to release sensitive data to the public . The hacker 's online presence shrunk in the past few months , as many hoped he called it quits and moved on to other activities . Last night , at around 22:00 UTC ( 17:00 ET ) , your reporter noticed the hacker posting links on his Twitter profile that linked to a Pastebin page , GitHub profile , and a Pirate Bay torrent sharing episode 1 of season 5 of Netflix 's `` Orange Is The New Black '' show . We did n't manage to get ahold of the Pastebin and GitHub links because they went down 20 minutes after they were posted , but we presume the links contained ransom demands Attack.Ransom . On the other hand , the Pirate Bay torrent file remained online , and users have downloaded and shared its content . Twelve hours later , TDO posted a new set of links on Twitter . These included a statement posted on Pastebin and a second torrent file , also hosted on The Pirate Bay , containing episodes 2 through 10 of the same season 5 of `` Orange Is The New Black . '' In the Pastebin statement , TDO says he released the ten `` Orange Is The New Black '' episodes because Netflix did n't want to pay a ransom demand Attack.Ransom . While we were n't able to get in touch with TDO after numerous attempts , the hacker spoke with the administrator of DataBreaches.net , a reporter named Dissent . In their interview , TDO revealed he discovered `` hundreds of GBs of unreleased and non-public media , '' on the servers of a Hollywood studio . The hacker did n't clarify if the server was exposed accidentally , or if he hacked it . DataBreaches.net identified the studio as Larson Studios , Inc. , an audio post-production company , who later confirmed TDO's extortion Attack.Ransom attempt via email . TDO claims the studio initially agreed to pay a ransom Attack.Ransom of 50 Bitcoin ( $ 67,000 ) by January 31 , and the two parties even signed a contract , albeit TDO signed it using the name `` Adolf Hitler . '' Something happened during the month of January , and the studio did not honor its word . At this point , the hacker turned from the studio to Netflix . According to TDO 's statement , Netflix did n't want to pay his ransom demand Attack.Ransom either , and after two months he was forced to release the first ten episodes of season 5 of `` Orange Is The New Black . '' According to Netflix 's website , season 5 is supposed to have 13 episodes and is scheduled for release in June , this year . The release of these episodes is TDO 's shot across the bow . The hacker claims to hold other unreleased shows and movies from several other studios .
