If your information is true, the platform Steemit is doomed and I will use the officially centralized platforms with official censorship again. There would be no reason left to stay on Steemit in my own opinion.
And I´m saying this despite I personally invested in Steem last year. I posted my thoughts in my blog about the problems here right before they announced to terminate the most part of their staff.
My definition of a hacker is, that they denounce nuisances (f.e. corruption) to help the public and the world as a community. Which means they should not hold the information about 9/11 for (crypto) ransom.
I think there are more uncharted and wealthy participants who should get their lawsuit.
But this is just my own picture of how a hacker should be.
The big question is, if the hackergroup is finding a censorship free platform (if there is any out there?) and if they will resign on their ransom and just publish the insurance fraud and confidants.
What I also can´t believe is, that there is no one out there to pay 2.000.000 in BTC for this kind of information?! It´s actually a bargain...
-> Resteemed my favourite crypto group ;)
