You want to know the best way to kill hackers?

Fear.

The NSA's leadership and Snowden have killed much of an entire generation of hackers who hadn't yet found where their curiosity was to lead them.

What are left are empty shells that too afraid to explore.


Fuck you General Alexander.
Fuck you Edward Snowden.
Fuck you every single Congressional cheerleader of mass surveillance.

Could you elaborate? I don't quite understand what you mean

>>60357289
I think he means that kids now think of hackers as scary criminals who are destined to a life of exile or in a federal prison instead of cool, edgy and untouchable outcasts like they did in the 90's

To many non-military hackers, hacking was/is a way of combining curiosity with establishing a sense of control in an environment where the prospective hacker felt powerless.

The NSA represents the end game of failure. They represent *the* authority on the Internet. Worse, they represent authority at the hands of politicians.

We no longer have control over the most minute of online territories anymore. There is no more playground. No more freedom without risk of consequence.

There is no one that can credibly promise the NSA's capabilities and data will never become a tool used domestically. Not even Admiral Rogers can promise this. There have been multiple times in our nation's history where spooks have become political tools and there's reasonable fear of that happening again in the future.

I wanted to change the world. Now I'm too afraid to break out of my shell. Every time a politician fear mongers or wants to do something to cripple the Internet, the NSA comes up in my mind.

"Oh but anon - you're not important! You're not interesting!"

Well then. I guess I best never become someone important or interesting. Fucking kills my spirit.

The scary thing is that the Russians had nsa-grade swift bank hacks for years and no one noticed. I wonder if the banks noticed and didn't say anything to save face.

>>60357875
I have no proper advice to give you and all this feels weird.
In a certain way it's "good" that not everyone can do whatever they want on the Internet (and I'm talking about actual dangerous crimes and whatnot) but on the other side having everything you do tracked really sucks. Even more for those hackers who want to act to make a change for the better: they end up being reluctant to actually doing them because they risk too much.
It's all about being stripped off of privacy and freedom

>>60358182

Got no freedom to make mistakes either. You talk of actual dangerous crimes but all I see get paraded around as wins by authorities are people like Aaron Swartz or Fidel Salinas or other people who hurt no one but are treated like violent rapists or murderers.

All the hacker groups I was surrounded by growing up wanted some political changes. Copyright law changed for freedom of culture and more freedom to spread knowledge. Governmental transparency - efforts to get PACER to open up its databases failed.

Know what we got? The DMCA to cripple us. Decades of demonization and hatred of all that we are by Governmental institutions. Mass surveillance with our own tools turned against us. Tcpdump and wireshark weren't invented for spooks to dehumanize us with.

If today's current laws existed back in the 1970s, there'd be no Apple today due to Steve Jobs' and Steve Wozniak's sale of Blue Boxes.

For the hackers and makers who seek Copyright reform present day, the NSA's info being used against Kim Dot-Com was a gut punch.

The makers and breakers of today aren't afforded the same freedoms as our predecessors. We're left surrounded by landmines that are triggered for behavior whose safe limits (from authorities) are extremely subjective and poorly defined.

It's the Equation Group and The Shadow Brokers fault
Nonstate actors don't have the ethical ability to use the tools responsibly

Malware is why I back up shit I care about to DVD and always have a live Linux or WinPEish live DVD handy. I normally boot live Linux off USB but it can be done with a USB DVD drive.

With live write-only bootable operating systems you can, of course, read the contents of other DVDs,

Never use a Windows machine for communication if you don't have to. Mail and internet can be done using a Linux VM on a Windows host to keep evil shit doubly isolated.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Fucking hell, the NSA is the worst organization on the face of the Earth, I say that without even an ounce of exaggeration. This organization is going to go down in history as one of the biggest failures of all time.

>>60357521
Microsoft deliberately keeps backdoors so they can sell it to the highest bidder. It's just another business

>>60358647
tfw honest curiosity for exploitation can easily end up in jailtime if one is naive enough.

imagine some 9 year old on hackforums downloads a working tool based on the recently leaked nsa source code and gets rekt because he disables his schools computers.
Funny, but sad at the same time.

>ethical ability is reserved by the state
Fucking kek.

The fact of the matter is that the NSA developed these tools themselves and, had the organization not existed (i.e. in a significantly better and more rational world than the one we inhabit) none of this would have happened.

>>60359430

Maybe? Maybe not? Vulns exist regardless of the NSA existing.

They wanted it for themselves, '''hoping''' no enemies get control (this is where they're just stupid)

>>60361986
I don't think they're that stupid. They knew this would happen. They just wanted plausible deniability when they went on the offensive in a way that would be noticable.
