QbitAI Page Displays 'hacked by trenggalek6etar'
A QbitAI page displayed the text 'hacked by trenggalek6etar' on Oct. 8, 2026, an apparent defacement the outlet has not commented on.
The entry appeared in the outlet's feed under article identifier 41888, with a publication timestamp of 14:07:51 UTC on that date, or 22:07:51 Beijing time. Its headline and its body consist of the same string. No article text, byline, image or editorial content accompanies it.
The page retained QbitAI's standard copyright notice, which states in Chinese that the copyright is reserved and that no form of reproduction or use is permitted without authorization. The presence of that footer indicates the message was rendered through the outlet's ordinary page template rather than posted as a standalone file.
The string contains the handle "trenggalek6etar." The material available does not state whether that name belongs to an individual, a group, or whether it refers to any identified organization, and no claim of responsibility beyond the phrase itself was included.
It could not be determined from the available material whether the posting resulted from a compromise of the outlet's publishing system, from misuse of an authorized account, or from some other form of intrusion, nor whether any other part of the site was affected. QbitAI has not issued a public statement on the matter in the material reviewed. The record does not show whether the page was subsequently removed or restored, and no estimate of the number of readers who saw it before any change was given.
