Do you actually understand how Google works?
When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

At the time I posted that - the thread WAS the top search result for that EXACT phrasing - which is why I put it in quotes. Change the phrasing around, and the results will alter. They don't alter as much as they used to, when the algorithms were more specified - and open to abuse once everyone figured them out.

As for the "They are on to us!" That was tongue in cheek. The exclamation mark should have made that obvious.

Not a very good Pepe.

If you were thinking I meant a top google search term (like Trump, wikileaks, or some weird trending porn might currently be) I can see where you'd be confused and think what I posted was nonsensical.

Dude. Google customizes your searches to you. There is no "the top result." Only your top result.

Wow, they figured out you like Path of Exile. Master fucking detectives.

When they can. When you are on a computer that you rarely use at a large company with internal subnetting, and browser caches cleared daily - with no access permitted to path of exile.com - in a different city, with a different major hub ...

I am well aware of browser cache, cookies, IP tracking etc.

There are a few things you are completely missing here. One should be obvious.

Was it webcams? Internet says webcams.


From what I read this group was using the CCTV devices (whatever they were) as a botnet to facilitate the yolo attack #LOIC #ANONYMOUS #UBERL33THACKERS

Basically these devices that these chinese companies make have the credentials hard coded into them, in order to change the credentials you have to telnet or ssh into the device (whateverthatmeans), since most people dont care to do that, these IoT devices are just sitting there with their panties all down and anyone who comes along and uses this vulnerability to access the cam can just be all up in its guts and do whatever they want with it

get a bajillion of these devices together and form a meaty botnet and you can spunk ur load all over some targets and cause outages

am i talkin about the same thing u guys are
anything is everything
