A pseudonymous hacktivist known as “Martha Root” executed a dramatic digital takedown last week, remotely wiping three white supremacist websites in real time during a presentation at the Chaos Communication Congress in Hamburg, Germany. The platforms—WhiteDate, WhiteChild, and WhiteDeal—remain offline following the incident.
A High-Stakes Live Demonstration
Dressed as the Pink Ranger from the Power Rangers, the hacker performed the operation during the closing moments of a keynote session. The talk, titled “The Heartbreak Machine: Nazis in the Echo Chamber,” featured the hacker alongside journalists Eva Hoffmann and Christian Fuchs, who previously exposed the networks in a Die Zeit investigation.
The targeted sites served distinct extremist niches: WhiteDate acted as a niche dating portal, WhiteChild functioned as a platform for matching sperm and egg donors, and WhiteDeal operated as a labor marketplace for white supremacists.

Exposing Poor Cybersecurity Hygiene
Beyond deleting the servers, Root published scraped data from WhiteDate, citing the platform’s abysmal security standards. The hacker noted that user images contained unstripped geolocation metadata, inadvertently exposing home addresses. Root mocked the site administrators, stating, “Imagine calling yourselves the ‘master race’ but forgetting to secure your own website—maybe try mastering to host WordPress before world domination.”
The leaked dataset revealed over 6,500 users, with a stark gender imbalance of 86% men and 14% women. While passwords and private messages were not included in the initial dump, the data contained names, pictures, age, precise coordinates, and racial identifiers.
Infiltration via AI
According to the conference abstract, the hacker successfully infiltrated the networks by deploying AI chatbots that bypassed verification processes by mimicking “white” identities.
The site administrator confirmed the breach on social media, labeling the event “cyberterrorism” and vowing to seek repercussions. Furthermore, the administrator alleged that Root had briefly compromised their X (formerly Twitter) account during the operation.
Data Now Held by DDoSecrets
The nonprofit collective DDoSecrets has secured a 100-gigabyte dataset containing the files and user information from the three sites. Dubbed “WhiteLeaks,” the archive is currently restricted to verified journalists and researchers rather than being released for public download.
While the presenters claim to have identified the administrator as a German woman, independent verification of this identity remains pending. Requests for comment sent to the administrator via email and public domain records went unanswered at the time of publication.
