What did there demands even end up being to the FBI?

For those that missed the 404 article, apparently they hacked the FBI last week and had 3TB of data as well as a complete roster of everyone at the FBI. Pretty serious stuff and that's basically a death wish.

From what I understand, this past spring the FBI published an advisory claiming that ShinyHunters was responsible for an attack on a learning management system.

ShinyHunters then hacked the FBI Jobs page, allegedly stole data on all FBI employees and defaced the public site and demanded that the FBI retract their previous advisory. They said they weren’t going to release the data they stole but whether or not that’s believable is a different question.
