Technology

I work in tech and I hate it when non-security people talk about it.

It's really painful to read about "a new hack that can affect billions of accounts" from a source, only to learn its some new social phishing method.

No, post an unhinged rant where he doesn't say he's a nazi, but he talks in detail about how he sucks at video games phrased as bragging, then shits on gamers for noticing, and says a buncha shit like the 14 words and junk.

Not just Elon's account, shut the whole site down!

...we need a hack to prove that?

Does that game have swords yet? Last time I played, not all classes were there.

Fascists arent people. Antifa osint people joined to watch.

Equally upsetting. The site is truthsocial.com not truth.social

I mean it does depend on the extent of the hack. But usually taking down the website, they don't take the databases or anything

Hacking isn't hacking it's usually cracking

The word "hack" is pre-internet. A "hack" journalist or a "hack job" is basically something unprofessional. It is movies that turned "hackers" into someone that gained access to the "mainframe". In the realm of computer systems, I would argue that a "hack" is doing anything the system was not intended/designed to do. A successful DoS or DDoS needs to find some component of the system that wasn't designed to handle the amount of traffic about to be sent to it.

There are protections for DDoS (iptables, fail2ban, Cloudflare and so on), you have to figure out a way around them, that's a hack.

In an age where "willfully giving out your account password" is called hacking, here I'd call it tomato or tomato.

Its like watching two shitty people have an argument.

Value gained, actually.

nah it's a lazy fork so seeing how he chooses people (they're either cheap or friends of friends or both) "truth" can easily have a totally new security issue

maybe the server has a root password that's "trump454748$$$"
