Teaser from the source

Hackers broke into Alternita Dienstleistungs GmbH, the party-owned company that hosts web and email for Germany's Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), in September 2026 and copied party officials' mailboxes. The data, hundreds of gigabytes of emails and attachments, was published on an activist website in October.
