    A post has just gone up on their Facebook -

    We got hacked last week - someone stole Thom’s minidisk archive from around the time of OK Computer, and reportedly demanded $150,000 on threat of releasing it.

    So instead of complaining - much - or ignoring it, we’re releasing all 18 hours on Bandcamp in aid of Extinction Rebellion: https://radiohead.bandcamp.com
    Just for the next 18 days. So for £18 you can find out if we should have paid that ransom.
    Never intended for public consumption (though some clips did reach the cassette in the OK Computer reissue) it’s only tangentially interesting. And very, very long. Not a phone download. Rainy out, isn’t it though?

    Pretty cool that they've done this.

    Are you implying that they lied about it? Why would they do that? The proceeds from the bandcamp sales aren't even going to the band, it goes to charity.
