Facebook hires geohot - Polidicks

[QUOTE=The Bee Gees;30725952]Everyone says herp de derp derp derp fucking derp, sql injections r so easy. If they r so easy what would be the MLG PRO way to haxxor somebody, since you ALL seem to be SO knowledgeable about it.[/QUOTE] root their box lol [editline]26th June 2011[/editline] or hit their servers with axes like a pro hacker

One of the world's most notoriously talented hackers is hired to make iPad apps for Facebook. LOL

Good to see his skill put to use in a productive way

[QUOTE=fenwick;30728954]One of the world's most notoriously talented hackers is hired to make iPad apps for Facebook. LOL[/QUOTE] I am sure it won't but 'just' an app like you know it. If I had his skills I would do something awesome with that app. (If he can though... After all we don't really know if he has any saying over the app.)

[QUOTE=JustExtreme;30729572]Good to see his skill put to use in a productive way[/QUOTE] I think the kind of work required for Facebook is beneath someone like Geohotz. Web development is easy shit. [editline]26th June 2011[/editline] Even I could work for Facebook.

[QUOTE=Starpluck;30724602]Not really surprising, another company will probably do the same with Lulzsec (once they get out of jail)[/QUOTE] There's a major difference between Lulzsec and Geohot. Geohot is [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_%28hobbyist%29]this sort of hacker[/url].

[QUOTE=Atlascore;30724665]Exactly, ddos attacks and sql injections can be done by any retard with a "hacking-for-dummies" book.[/QUOTE] A "hacking 4 dummies" book can't give you a few thousand slave computers. You need some effort to hijack enough computers for a decent DDOS.

[QUOTE=Combin0wnage;30724636]Only thing I would trust Lulzsec with is a mop and a broom.[/QUOTE] If that even, they would probably start using the mops and brooms as make belief pirate swords and trash the office while I was out.

[QUOTE=certified;30731095]A "hacking 4 dummies" book can't give you a few thousand slave computers. You need some effort to hijack enough computers for a decent DDOS.[/QUOTE] Did they use a botnet or did they do like what /b/ does and people volunteer and download the LOIC tool?

[QUOTE=Trumple;30724992]:foxnews: [b]Facebook now hiring hackers to become an underground hacker community Could Facebook be hacking you? More at 11 [/b] :foxnews:[/QUOTE] It DID hack our lives. Now everybody knows everything of each others lives.

[QUOTE=Starpluck;30724807]I'm not dumb I know what a ddos is. Battlefield Heroes data wasn't "ddosd", nor was AT&T and AOL and you can't really say it was a "simple SQL injection" when those high-class organizations are beyond that[/QUOTE] I wouldn't be so sure of that, after all the official website of MySQL had a SQL injection exploit a while ago.

[QUOTE=Overv;30739360]I wouldn't be so sure of that, after all the official website of MySQL had a SQL injection exploit a while ago.[/QUOTE] And we all laughed our asses off at the sheer irony of the situation.
