> Apparently the appeals court also released the hacker The court of appeals found me guilty, despite the evidence clearly not supporting that conclusion. I rather doubt it's because they're for sale, rather it would have been

I don't know. I just had a break for approx 3 years with very limited access to the internet. Absolutely nothing has changed. AI is now useful, but it doesn't operate differently than before.

Two different things: Linked to this investigation? Of course it was. Linked to the crime? No, not really. The cryptocurrency analysis in this case reaches absurd conclusions and doesn't stand up to the slightest scrutiny. At best thei

For sure, just goes to show how important it is to really carefully consider your threat model.

>But the thing about not having any devices seized, is that real? It's real and just as bizarre as it sounds. You'd think that'd be the #1 thing you'd want in any serious investigation.

I doubt such a thing exists, it's a difficult world for outsiders to penetrate. I don't think we'll ever get to see it, these stories get less and less relevant as time passes.

Someone else leaked a copy of a shared throwaway VM used for hacks. Akin to https://www.thc.org/segfault/ , but longer lived and potentially tens of people with access. The leaked home folder data doesn't really ti

Yes, I'm sure my comments here are just full of terribly damaging stuff. Not sure what the theory here is. Am I supposed to worry about the judges stalking me online and reading my HN comments professing innocence? The prosecutors coul

I was 17 at the time :) And FWIW, the whole joke there was that neither me nor the other guy being interviewed had anything at all to do with the attacks on PSN and XBL.

I doubt it. I think it's just cops doing shitty work under pressure and then trying to cover it up.

The big problem with this video is that it's basically entirely based on google translated tabloid articles. The results are what you might expect if you decided to just use dailymail.co.uk as a source, similar to the creator of malici

The queries appear to have been looking for me specifically, filtering by date of birth. That wouldn't be a good way to find my relatives.

I am indeed the guy in the article. My side of the story is fairly boring, didn't do crime but got blamed for it anyway by desperate cops. The whole investigation has been bizarre, for example, no-one has ever searched my homes, or eve

Unfortunately that relies on Joe Tidy as the source. I tend to refrain from being overly critical of journalists who write about me, but Joe Tidy is a special kind of idiot who wrote an entire book about me based mostly around interviews of

So, would it be better if I feigned remorse for a crime I didn't even commit in the first place?

It’s important to understand that “middle class” has a very different meaning in the UK than the US. In the UK “middle class” generally means “posh”, you could see it as a shorthand for “upper middle class”.

Oh yeah, I’d assume that most people hate calling restaurants :) It’s been a loong time since I last phoned in a pizza order, but for restaurant reservations it’s a daily thing (lots of places do have tables even though online booking says

But why would you care if the pizza place gets your name right? My name is difficult too, but I just don’t give restaurants my real name.

Nobody reports this stuff, but exploit kits like blackhole have completely disappeared. (Sure, maybe technically not “0click” even if delivered via an ad on nytimes.com) The situation has dramatically improved during the past 30 years, but

by ryanlol 5y ago
Of course not, the situation is already far better than it was 5 or 10 years ago. If anything, we’re slowly exiting the 0-click era, not entering it.
