Thanks Furious.
Believe you me, this answers a whole lotta questions.
Like most of you on this board I've worked web security, debugging, anti-hacking for almost ten years now. In that time I've never seen as much activity as in the past 6 months and in the past 2 months have been ridiculous. What pisses me off most is that all the old timers on this board will remember how the feds wouldn't listen to us back in the day and we ended up having to do THEIR jobs.
I worked for AOL for years. Every fucking day we had to report people. We had to invent techniques and technologies. It was the adult webmasters who lead the charge! When it came to CP and hostile programs the adult webmasters were faster and more efficient than the government. I just talked to good ol' Compdoctor about this the other day. It's getting ridiculous!
I got an email from a pal who runs a very successful software company. He was caught up because there were embedded codes in images hitting his customers and his company. He remembered years ago when I warned him about this and tried to show him how to prevent it. I think it was Compdoctor and CA Dave that hipped me to this way back in '01. So did TLA and the crew at his board. They were always ahead of the game.
This kind of shit is what's going to destroy the internet. When the NSA got busted putting cookies illegally on people that just said to the public that you can't even trust the people you're paying to trust so what're the bad guys doing?
Remember how last year some of the big banks got busted for letting out people's personal info? That's horrendous! Yet sure as heck they'll blame the adult industry and it's no where near as criminal and incompetent as the mainstream and government.
Know why? Because most of you know that the only reason the web blew up commercially is because there is an army of people who got bullshitted into the technical field and lost their jobs cause of corporate bullshit and treachery. Soon as mom and pop sites started up both adult and non-adult and people started becoming affluent, that's when the shit started.
This country is set up to make sure you can't succeed. It's not the foundation of the country but the control of it by industrialists just as Thomas Jefferson had warned about. So any avenue or venue that helps you break that stranglehold of debt is attacked.
Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Google, etc. weren't supposed to happen.
Geeks are getting the girls and it makes the jocks look bad.
It's about pussy control believe you me.
