Why did Ariana Grande sue hackers?

American singer Ariana Grande has filed a lawsuit against hackers who allegedly stole her personal information and unreleased creative materials. The news was reported by People.

According to court documents, unidentified individuals hacked the personal accounts of photographers and producers who had worked with Grande, gaining access to her unreleased songs, photographs, audio recordings, and videos. The stolen materials were later sold for profit.

The lawsuit states that 45 unreleased songs were leaked online in 2023 alone. Since the beginning of Grande's music career in 2011, similar leaks have reportedly occurred hundreds of times.

Grande's legal team says the lawsuit aims not only to identify those responsible but also to prevent similar illegal activities in the future. They emphasized that artists have the right to decide when and how their creative work is released to the public.
