Oana Eftimie stated in a clip that the reports from DGPI and SRI, declassified on December 4, 2024, two days before the annulment of the elections, indicated the involvement of PNL, through the communication agency Kensington, in coordinating a TikTok campaign associated with Călin Georgescu's candidacy. Eftimie said that authorities presented the #EchilibrușiVerticalitate campaign as evidence of Russian interference and that the DGPI report considered it identical to a campaign called "Brother Next to Brother," conducted by the Russian Federation in Ukraine before the invasion in February 2022. According to the author, the campaign had been run by Kensington and paid for by PNL, according to an ANAF report. She compared this lead to the criminal prosecution for the continued bribery of voters against Bogdan Peșchir and the influencers who had voluntarily supported Georgescu’s candidacy. Eftimie claimed that for almost two years, she had not seen a similar interest in investigating the campaign she attributed to PNL. The author further asserted that the authorities had initially anonymized the names of the agencies involved, but had not protected the identities of the influencers targeted by actions. She also reported that Peșchir had been forced by a police officer to remove his cap, mask, and glasses when he arrived escorted at the IGPR headquarters. Eftimie questioned why the lead on the paid campaign was not being investigated. #PNL #InterferențăRusească #Alegeri2024 (translated)

PlayStation News reported that Cyberleek published three statements titled "The End of the Road" in which it ruled out spreading the full version of GTA 6. According to Cyberleek, the cryptocurrency associated with the project did not reach a market capitalization of 30 million dollars, so it would not publish the more than 200 GB it claimed to have. It added that anonymously disclosing such a volume of information posed a risk that it was only willing to take if it reached that economic goal. Cyberleek stated that it had the game's ending and had considered releasing it to harm Take Two, but decided against it to avoid ruining the experience for millions of players. As proof, it said that its most recent leaks included fragments of final missions, presented out of context to avoid major spoilers. It also claimed to have activated a system called Dead Man’s Switch, which, it indicated, would automatically publish story spoilers if anyone acted against it. In response to the scam accusations related to the cryptocurrency, Cyberleek maintained that it had only sold tokens on two occasions to cover fees and that it had always presented them as donations, not as investments. It also accused several YouTubers and influencers of spreading false information about the project and blaming it for the cryptocurrency's decline. Cyberleek said that it had fulfilled its promises and that the leaks would end for the time being, although it left open the possibility of returning. #GTA6 #Cyberleek #filtraciones (translated)
