pwned
lorehackingsecurity
Slang for having been thoroughly defeated or compromised.
From a likely typo of "owned" in gaming culture, "pwned" spread to security to mean an account or system that has been taken. It is immortalized in "Have I Been Pwned", the service that checks whether your address appears in known breaches.
Also known as: pwn, owned, pwnage
