Metropolitan Police hack blamed on gang of teenage cyber-vandals. Now the attack has been blamed on a shadowy hacking gang centred around an infamous anonymous cyber-vandal known only by the pseudonym Cal or his Twitter handle @Cal086, who is believed to be in his late teens or early 20s and live in the US. Some members of his hacking ‘crew’ are so young they are still high school kids. As the attack was underway, we were contacted by a cyber-security expert with strong links to the global hacking underworld. He pointed out that the name Cal was used in the tweets and pointed us to several pieces of evidence suggesting a link between the hacking gang and the Metropolitan Police incident. Cal denied being involved in the hack, which he described as ‘stupid’. It is notoriously difficult to unequivocally prove who carried out a hack because cyber-criminals are adept at hiding their identities. Ryan Jackson, 18, is now a cyber-security entrepreneur but once ran the Twitter account for a group called New World Hackers (@NewWorld Hacking) which took responsibility for attacks which brought down the BBC website in 2016. He is friends with Cal, who gained fame and almost 20,000 Twitter followers after taking responsibility for a famous attack on the Fortnite Twitter account earlier this year. Cal deleted most of these Twitter followers at some point before the Met hacks. ‘My past allowed me to hang around with a lot of high profile hackers that still operate today,’ Jackson told Metro. ‘I know who did the hacking: [It was] @Cal086 and his crew, who jack high profile Twitter accounts. ‘In the past, they have hacked accounts like @FortniteGame and @KoolAid. ‘Cal’s name is in the tweet and it’s pretty obvious [he did it] because he tweets his name every time [he carries out a hack].’ He added: ‘I use to talk to Cal on the regular before he started hacking. ‘Cal recently deleted his whole Twitter following at 18k. He tweeted to say he didn’t want clout and wanted to remain Anonymous. ‘I’m extremely positive it was Cal.’ There are several clues suggesting some link between the Met hackers and Cal’s own gang as well as similarities between Cal’s previous work and the tweets sent by the Met hackers. When he hacked Fortnite’s Twiter account, Cal posted the message: ‘4PF SHIT GANG BIZ.’ The Met Police hackers shared the words: ”FREE DIGGA D ON FOENEM GANG.’ Digga D is a drill rapper belived to currently be in prison. Jackson added: ‘I’ve recently gained information that one of Cal’s friends is from the UK, so this may explain that music accusation if they did, in fact, post it.’ The hashtag #ChucklingHella was also posted to the police’s Twitter account. This phrase is used often in the large community centred around Cal, although we cannot say whether he used it himself because his account is now locked. Jackson told us: ‘Their keyword is #ChucklingHella or #Chuckling, which is basically saying: “I’m laughing at your security.”‘ The words ‘Chuckling’ and ‘Hella’ also featured in tweets sent earlier this year by an 18-year-old living in London, who recently wrote a post suggesting ‘feds done got’ Cal086, suggesting he had attracted the attention of police. When we contacted them about the claims, they passed on our message to Cal086 himself, who wrote to us and said: ‘Why would I be arrested when I haven’t done anything?’ Cal denied knowing anything about the hack and said: ‘I saw the tweets the next day. Whoever did it is just plain stupid. ‘It will catch up on them, these things always do. ‘When someone gets hacked, I always get the blame even though it wasn’t me. It’s really stupid.’ He then shared an image of another account with the user name ‘C4L’ and said: ‘This might help you. ‘That’s a different Cal.’ But he later changed his tune and said: ‘I’m not saying he’s the hacker but it wasn’t me. ‘I’m just proving a point to you there is more than one Cal.’ Cal said he gave up hacking ‘a long time ago’ and said ‘it isn’t worth it anymore’. However, he admitted carrying out hack on Fortnite which took place in April, during which people were invited to follow his Twitter account. He denied knowing anything about the phrase ‘Chuckling Hella’, although later in our conversation admitted it was used by people he knew. ‘I honestly have no idea what that means,’ he continued. ‘Never used it in my life. ‘I don’t even know where it came from just seen people tweet it.’ He went on to say that his Twitter followers ‘all say chuckling hella’ because it was used by the hacker which attacked YouTuber who uses the Twitter account Jack Tenney (whose account is @JoogSquad) earlier this year.

Viger: Professional Gamers PROFESSIONAL GAMERS ARE TODAY’S PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES Troy Viger ABSTRACT Recall the adversities faced by many in the entertainment industry. Freddie Mercury tried to join several bands before forming Queen. Judy Garland signed with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer at age thirteen after performing with her sisters throughout her childhood. Babe Ruth signed his first professional baseball contract with the minor-league Baltimore Orioles. Those same historic adversities faced by these giants of the entertainment industry are being repeated today in a closely related field—the Esports industry. Esports, a form of competitive video gaming, attracts audiences that “rival some of the world’s great sporting events.” A thorough due diligence review of the industry-norm contract must be undertaken. Esports professionals continue to fall victim to handshake deals put to paper like so many entertainers before them.

Gotta Catch ‘Em All! The Rise of eSports and the Evolution of its Regulations Elizabeth Chung* I. INTRODUCTION It will inevitably shock many to find out that the video gaming industry stands to be one of the most successful industries for upcoming generations. In fact, it is predicted that the global gaming market will hit nearly $180 billion in revenues by 2021 (in 2012, the revenue market stood at a measly $70.7 billion).1 This increase in market size “reflect[s] the constant growth of platforms, such as smartphones.”2 In 2018, mobile games brought in $61.3 billion in revenue, accounting for over 50% of the total gaming market, and are expected to grow to $106.4 billion, or to about 59% of the total revenue, by 2021.3 According to one study, “there are about 2.3 billion gamers across the globe,”4 and 91% of the global market is digital.5 This means that “$125.3 billion worth of games flows through digitally connected channels as opposed to physical retail.”6 The transition from brick and mortar retail stores to online digital plat- forms can be seen across most industries.

Esports coverage, interest and participation has been proliferating for some time now. YouTubers and Twitch streamers have made significant money on the internet streaming their video games, and then competing in world-wide competitions, leaving their thumbs to earn them the big bucks.
