Hackers post Fez developer Phil Fish's personal information and take control of his studio's website

The online harassment of gaming developers has hit a criminal level.

Hackers allegedly originating from the popular image-board website 4chan posted files to the Web on Thursday night that included personal and identifying information for Fez developer Phil Fish; his studio, Polytron Corporation; and Depression Quest developer Zoe Quinn. This data, which was likely obtained illegally, included the information required to get into Polytron’s PayPal account as well as Quinn’s Dropbox cloud-storage account. Additionally, the hackers allegedly took control of the Polytron website and Twitter accounts. The hackers are apparently targeting Fish and Quinn for taking strong, outspoken stances against sexism and racism in games and in the industry.
