Caminante Nocturno      If there's one thing the Yakuza, Mafia, and drug cartels are well-known for, it's vandalizing their enemies' online sites with loli hentai and lolcats.
One step closer to a "Ripped from the headlines" episode.

Pandatronic      They've been downgraded from the Internet Hate Machine to Friendly Neighborhood Hackers.
|
gmol      The headline should read: Computer Security Researcher Says Not Enough Money Going Into Computer Security Research.
|
Smellvin     -1 for making the term "hacker" even more meaningless and implying that kids getting into MySpace accounts is tantamount to terrorists destroying our infrastructure via the internet.
|
Roachbud      Apparently Myspace hackers have the same talent as cyberwarriors who go after the defense department, gotta love TV news.
|
fluffy      At least they've stopped making vans explode.
|
Adramelech      I like how some guy is smart enough to acknowledge that the goofballs from 4chan and clones are just a bunch of dumb, unfunny kids with too much free time and not enough parenting, yet chooses to participate in a story depicting them as cyber terrorists.

Maggot Brain      FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD HACKERS ON STEROID
|
Dr. Lobotomy      What is involved when "they", the terrorist hackers on steroids, steal passwords? Keystroke loggers? Brute force attempts? Educated and/or lucky guesses? Something else?
I'm curious about that. All the "news reports" quickly go from the stolen passwords and website vandalism to all out "they'll internets' tubes to kill us all!".
|
StanleyPain The number one "hack" on myspace is people basically copying the HTML template of MySpace's welcoming page down to a T, making their own website where entering your username/password actually logs it into the server.
Then, a user will send out some message or bulletin with a link "HEY CHECK OUT THIS FUNNY VIDEOZ", only when the user clicks on it, it takes them to the spoofed MySpace page that says they've logged out and need to log in. Said user, to dumb to figure out what's going on, tries to log in and VIOLA.....their name and password are stolen.

dr_rock Hackers don't play the viola. It's far to sophisticated.

|
StanleyPain Yeah, it was an intentional joke. But it goes down better as not intentional. Carry on.
