alexander Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 http://news.zdnet.com/2100-1009_22-6108032.html yeah, the guy who's name was for regular users synonymous with hacker, got hacked... well, one its not his fault entirely, and another thing, if remember, if you get caught, chances are that you are not as much of a security expert as you may think to be. but yeah, still funny :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinar Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Mitnick says in the same link"When I was a hacker, I never stooped to defacing sites because that was more like vandalism; that wasn't any fun. " I agree with him, someone with real skills won't waste them just for vandalism.The ones who deface his site was probably only capable of such things... But still it makes you smile when you read "Mitnicks Website Hacked" :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexander Posted August 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 i find that not necessarily true, hacking mitnick's website and defacing it could be a fun activity for sheer show that he is not as security concious as he may think... Mitnick's a big name, he's got a few books out and quite a lot of press about him, but he is not a hacker anymore, the fuzz is really overrated and people who hacked the website may have been saying just that... or they really were script kiddies from asia :cup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockytriton Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 hey! not all asians are script kiddies! ... just the ones that have computers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexander Posted August 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 no offense meant rocky :D just that i find a lot of attempted attacks coming from that area, but you see a fair share from everywhere... and there are script kiddies everywhere...

alexander Posted September 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Just remembered, i was actually going to see Mitnick spealk at Hope, he was supposed to have a keynote there, but i think he got stuck somewhere in Asia sick, in the hospital...No offense to Mr Mitnick ofcourse, i really do think that web grafiti is not a real skill and is for script kiddies, but could be fun if its your friends website or something, just for laughs...
