Hackers should know how to secure their own website. Between this and the JS injection hack (from the same fellow), it's clear that security is porous at best.


Where do you work, erlanger? Let's have a look.


As a kid I never understood why some of the kinds made it a hobby to trash the sandcastles built by the others. It was an interesting phenomenon to watch :)

Maybe they thought that if they wanted to, they can do better, but they never did.


Or maybe it's a cop-out to say that you didn't care about your sand castle's security in the first place. If you knew of a way to keep it from getting knocked over, you'd use it.


Being an asshole is just that - being an asshole.

It doesn't really involve anyone else.


Know who knocks over a sand castle? A dick.

I'm sick of security. I wish we could make things without worrying about the myriad ways there are to destroy a thing?

What did xach have to gain by doing this experiment that he would have lost by emailing PG quietly, beyond the childish feeling of destroying a good thing?
