The whole Hugging Face/Openai thing just reeks of scam. It's a publicity stunt, it helps keep them in the media, trying to scare people into being wowed by their horrible next word picker.

If it happened, it would be fucking CFAA felony.
And there's no way to know if it's totally cleaned up on HF's side, *that's not how compromises of infrastructure work*
