I honestly didn't even realize that the second episode of punch for punch was out. I fully agree with Nick that you need the corridor push. I don't think that the netflix YT channel has the right audience around it right now. Not to mention I never even heard of the netflix channel until you guys did Punch for Punch.
Netflix has no idea what to do with its extra-curriculars (notwithstanding the mistakes they're making with their primary product...). They shut down their Tudum platform because it wasn't getting any attention... what's that, you have no idea what Tudum is? Exactly. The marketing outside of Netlifx Originals is just... whatever they're paying them, it's too much or not enough, I have no idea what's going wrong. I like _Punch 4 Punch,_ but I have no interest in subbing to that other channel, so yeah, it's gonna struggle without a Crew push.
It's good to hear you all laughing together despite what just happened. I like the idea of continuing Punch 4 Punch in some way if it doesn't move forward with Netflix. I like getting to see in real time the things that you talk about in your reacts videos.
As a Patreon supporter who can't figure out how to get it connected to the website on mobile, I'm here to support the videos you make--whether they be expensive one-offs or consistently updated series. I love what you make, and want to support you in making whatever it is you WANT to make!
34:20 i commented about this on the Still Watching Netflix TH-cam channel, interesting fact, it has been less than a week since punch for punch episode 2 came out, and they have already uploaded 32 more videos onto the channel, they are oversaturating the shit out of it and not promoting the stuff that is actually capable of getting high views, whoever is managing that channal needs to scale back their upload rate.
Last year a bunch of brazilian channels suffered exactly the same attack model from hackers. So definitely is something that is going on for quite longer than 2 months.

I wish guys the best of luck with this, Something similar happened with my bank account and lost some money on it. Feels awful and we felt so weak.
To share these boardroom insights with viewers is an incredible mark of respect and a great way to really know the people we're investing in. Full kudos guys 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

I really liked the idea that was pitched for Corridor website before where yall take amateur/ indie videos and do the post-pro/VFX for them. Especially since I'd bet you'd have a lot of submissions and you could really pick and choose what would be most creatively fulfilling. Or maybe even use it as a practice for the "interns" or other Crew to try and step out of their comfort zone
the problem with punch for punch is that I will never subscribe to that channel because of all the trash they post. I watch the show but i dont know its out unless you guys tell me, because as i said, im not subscribing to that trash channel
I've been a member of the website since it first came out, and I think that both Jake and Sam are right. I love the serialized shows, Crew Cuts is basically The Office and I always look forward to it coming out. I'm also assuming this is something that you are aware of, but helping to greenlight a show which then doesn't come out for years does suck, because I have to keep paying for the website in the hopes of seeing something that I kinda feel like I already paid for. I know it wasn't done maliciously or anything, it was just a much bigger project than initially thought. What I would love to see are more Corridor shorts ( with a bonus being they would presumably have a faster turnaround than Local Zero). The reason I'm a member of the website is I love the talent and creativity of everyone and I just want you to keep making stuff. Maybe if stuff can get greenlit on the website then it wouldn't need to be quite as youtubey, like Sam's Moth short. I'm sure anything you put up will get lots of views, even if it will never go viral. Also, hurry up and make an action film staring Gui!
The live stream literally said if you sent in Bitcoin or Ethereum, they would send you back twice the amount. It seemed pretty obvious that it was at least partly for monetary gain. Did anyone on the podcast actually read what the live stream said?
I can't help but wonder if the fact that they are storytellers inclined them to see the facts as part of an exciting story, rather than just evidence of people running an illicit business purely for money. The bias towards narrative is strong for most of humanity, but the staff here are literally paid to have that bias.
100% ...and I can totally understand, but watching this discussion I was amused a bit about the crazy (and complicated) theories they came up with... I'll just mention Occam's razor here ;) Nico is usually a bit more grounded and would have probably reeled them in a bit :D
Punch 4 punch is a great series and frankly deserves better than 'still watching Netflix'. Everytime I look at it, it seems like a clip channel that is ripping off netflix shows, rather than a official netflix business channel. I noticed that P4P quickly gets buried by shorts in the channel list and becomes difficult to find. Would really hope to see P4P in the main streaming service.
These guys misunderstood the scam completely. The video said that Microstrategy was doing a crypto give away. The hackers were hoping people would scan the QR code and “send bitcoin or etherium, and we’ll send you back double the amount.” The hackers then just keep the crypto and don’t send any back obviously.
This "Free etherium" is the scam, they will say "If you send me 1 ETH i will send you back 2 ETH", and in the end they dont send anything back, its a pretty good strategy because its impossible to track back, and its been going for much more than two months, i've seen channels being hacked to do stuff like this a year back
Yeah, this has been popping around with a ton of channels that have been getting hacked, just pop some random Elon musk or some popular person in the crypto world and put these on there, some people in the crypto scene are gullible enough to just see a popular person and send their money right away.
GUYS. I love yalls stuff. everything yall put out. React stuff to any of the website stuff. I know yall touch on sound occasionally and mention some sound design moments, but I really think that Audio should be highlighted as well. Maybe a Sound Designers React, or something similar?? Sound is 50% of the finished product and I dont know if people always realize that!. Anyways, love the stuff guys, keep it up!!
When I saw the notification it reminded me that this happened to another youtuber I follow, he had to go to his lower-subscribed to second channel to keep everyone informed and keep producing content but because he was a smaller youtuber I think it took a lot longer to get his channel back. This was over two years ago...
I was on my YT sub feed right as it went live, it jumped from 3k to 10k to 200k in under 5 minutes. Not something even the biggest livestreamers can do unannounced. Most likely the 200k was botted accounts to drive engagement and push actual users into the 'trap'.
I 100% agree with you. There is no way even the biggest of an celeberty, youtuber/twitch streamer or not, would get that many viewers. Buying bot accounts to inflate your view count is common among these types of things and reletivly easy to do.
Love the current stuff, but honestly would happily back more self-contained, longer form content. Crew Cuts is still my favourite show, but I find myself bingeing it every couple of months randomly, when I have the free time. Whereas something more self-contained, I can see myself marking the calendar for and getting a bowl of popcorn ready to sit down and watch.
I think if you try out stand alone videos (like you did at the beginning of corridor digital) you also open the door for coming up with new content that can become serialized potentially. You could see it as a sandbox where you can try things out.
Actually, some nerds did some digging. Turns out that this scam is basically using an edited version of a real interview. And… yeah, they aren’t doing this with any malice towards the channels. They just scoop up every channel that they can and slap the same thing on there and wait for the money to start rolling in. Sad thing is that it works (to an extent - the startup cost for the scam is functionally zero at this point, so almost anything that they get is profit). The reason they didn’t clean out the channel is because it’s an unnecessary risk - all of the things they did are non-destructive operations, which means that there are less checks in place against them.
Stunt Dome and Shank for shank! Also, I think You''re both onto something, maybe try and aim for those bigger more expensive shorts every three-four months. People will get some shows every week and bigger productions we'll know one will be around the corner!
Have you guys considered using a VPN? You guys could use one to hide your location and encrypt your data. You could probably find a promo code on TH-cam
I am very thankful for the app. My wife and I definitely feel like it is money well spent. I usually just end up listening to podcast on TH-cam though, since the sounds play while my screen is off. Any way that feature could make it onto your app?
Hackers can spoof your cookies to get past 2FA basically making it look like theyre at your common location when logging in so it doesnt send the notification
If you guys sold assets, plugins (c4D, blender, after effects) I would buy all of those, especially if you used it in a youtube video. Kits and tools always make life easier as a creative
I see what Sam was saying about wanting the content on the website to be serialised as you are paying on a month by month basis, but I would not feel ripped off if there was a single video that had a lot of time and energy put into it. Especially if you are making something closer to 15-20 minutes, it would feel much more like a short film. Netflix has shows, but Netflix also has movies. You are essentially following this model on a smaller scale. It makes sense for you to have shows, but it could also make sense for you to have short movies! Thanks for keeping me inspired!
Ryan Higa has actually done Jake's Back to Back's idea, called Parkourse! Participants suggest in turn a set of "stunts" the others have to perform in a given area, the one who performed the worst gets an X then 3 X's mean out 😄
I’ve been wanting to do a series where I remake bad or alternate movie posters. I’m an illustrator and movies have always been a passion, especially to do movie posters.
Maybe not an idea for a repeatable storyline, but a one off Corridor. It'd be fun to do a Roger Rabbit/Chip and Dale type of thing with an animator. Doesn't have to be astronomical in cost, if you plan the shots and use CG for blocking, that saves tons of time in layout. It's one idea, but I think that'd be something new and fun for you guys.
That 2 factor part seems bogus to me. I've recently logged into a new tablet connected to my same ol' wifi and had Google want to authenticate that it's me logging in, it sent that notification to every device I'm logged into with that account.
There is a session hijack attack that bypasses 2fa. Basically, they can make their Chrome browser look like it's your Chrome browser, and if you have an active login from your browser, then that login transfers to their computer and they don't need your password or 2fa code. My understanding is the attack is usually accomplished through an executable file that they email to you, such as by pretending to be a sponsor and they send you an exe that is supposed to be the installer for their program.
#superdome is a good idea in my opinion but I think it was on the stuntman react show that someone mentioned that a stunt competition would give stunt people the incentive to go too far eventually and hurt themselves. I think a way to combat that is to make any injury an immediate disqualification in the name of safety but then still use that stunt clip for some kind of short piece at the end. This is bc I personally believe if a stunt person gets injured if it's in camera that's a shot that needs to be used. I also think that reinforces the incentive so maybe the main thru goal should be pulling off the stunt to a degree where it's the one a director would use over anything else for a short at the end. At least a small piece at the beginning going through how you're addressing safety concerns is probably a must too. This seems like it would be more work than punch4punch overall but have them wear trackers and then you could have lots of reference material maybe
they said this hack has been happening for 2 1/2 months, but i remember this happening to a channel named Brothgar around 3 years ago. same exact thing, videos were privatized and a microstrategy live stream was there in its place
would love to see Son of a Dungeon Season 1 put up on TH-cam with Season 2 out now. In fact it would be cool if older content from the website eventually ends up on youtube. like a *Corridor Classics* series on TH-cam.
I think the dream for the website would be a new video almost every day. Some being personality driven like crew cuts, some being more educational ones like wrens experiments,challanges, vfx and stuntmen reacts and then some more so pure entertainment or storytelling like Son of a dungeon and wizcops. And once in a while greenlight a singular video, because personally I still want to see films and not just crew type videos
Having seen this so many times before, the way they talk about it being a plot by the Russian government reminds me of elderly people talking about those Indian scam call centers.
@@tommyford1301 Yeah it Jake who went down that rabbit hole. Remember he anti-vax and anti-mask and pro gun. It hilarious that he was the one to suggest Russian Government. Can you act anymore like a stereotype 😂
So... this happened to another content creator I follow and she said that the "fix" was to regenerate a stream key. (This was on Twitch.) The problem she's facing right now is the same thing Corridor experienced, cuz although it was in good intention by her followers, it was flagged, and then banned. I don't know if she got her channel operational recently after disputing it, however. I was at first thinking it was a variation of a brute force attack but with stream keys, but it didn't explain how they could log in and change things.
1st guy speaks to close to mic. "Pff, pff, pop, pop!" - just a little abrasive when listening through headphones at 2.30am when one has insomnia and is trying to sleep.
I feel so bad for reporting the channel during the hack. I think I chose "misleading" something...and then wrote in the text box that Corridor Crew got hacked. I honestly thought it was the best thing to do so hearing on so many videos that I helped them lose thousands of dollars just crushes my heart, man. I'm really sorry.
I personally would like more greenlight options period. Stuntdome would probably get my vote but I think that if you're a subscriber there should be an email on the web page where we can drop ideas we think you guys would enjoy making. This way we have some input but yall are able to filter all the impossible or impractical ideas before they are posited to the masses.
I have no idea if this is it or if it's used as much now, but people can sim swap to get by 2 factor. Listen to the Reply All episode "The Snapchat Thief".
These crypto channel hacks have been happening for longer than two months. The scammers hack the channel and private all of the videos sometimes even delete them and then they run a crypto video on a live stream.
Punch 4 punch is great it's just that dayshift was meh... wish you were on the actual platform. So exicted for the next 2 !!!!! #stuntdome #shrimpacademy
I actually decided to start working towards a career in cyber security this past week so this whole situation has a different perspective to me than it would have 2 weeks ago.
Before I heard you guys mention the punch for punch on one of your videos, I had never heard of it. After I heard of it, it was really hard to find on Netflix. They're doing a terrible job of making it available. They should have put it on your channel.
Im learning the entire hacking thing so that when i become good enough i can hack like people like you and then tell you how i did it and how to counter act it 😂
I felt sorry for you about what happened to your channel, but I’m pleased it finally got back to normal. Hope the people who did this get caught, and get the karma they deserve, but it will be a tricky process. This sort of thing should never have happened to you all. You’re a wonderful channel and I love all the content you produce.
About what the personal gain of the hacker was, generally these stream say that they are giving a big giveaway with a link (this link doesn't show on description, only on video, maybe to not get flag by youtube automatically? idk). In this link it promises that can double the amount you sent to them and sent you back, but of course, they don't double it, they never give it back. So it was not a attempt to raise bitcoin or something like that. They usually use some big millionaire guy to seem more authentic, this happen a lot in other streams, they usually use elon musk with a QR code on video stream.
On the Punch for Punch stuff, I thought it was great. I didnt like going to the other channel and found the Still Watching channel very confusing. Its not something I would subscribe to. It very much seems in line with the rest of your content and I actually thought it was going to be another run of content specifically like that. Pretty much like a X Artists React episode just out in the wild and more production behind the scenes stuff. As for what id like to see on the platform, its mostly usability stuff. The main one being I would REALLY like it to not autoplay content I've already seen. I view the platform as a way to further support you all because I enjoy your content, I don't need more pull to want to go there. I chose to go there and pay because of exactly what you do on youtube. I still consume most of your content on youtube honestly. Id love a punch of punch spin off though if you want a specific point to content on that platform.
Also a thought on motive. It’s possible micro strategy has an affiliate marketing program. Many affiliate marketers use black hat means to generate leads. Affiliate marketers can be anyone. The entire spam industry is built on affiliate programs.
VPN wouldn't help them here... And the hacker was using a VPN making it impossible to find who he was. So it would be promoting having protection against being caught this case?
As those attacks are basically identical it sounds for me as some exploit published and used now by independent hackers 'trying it out'. On the other hand it's strange that TH-cam is aware of such problem and was not able to prevent it with some additional checks/confirmations with other admins. Maybe it's not common enough, nor worth it to develop such changes.
Recently YT has been struggling with many things. My page shows me many videos I have already watched or videos I don't even care... Even the page doesnt load videos so I have to refresh it. Today I noticed the app is being changing again and commenting is less comfortable. I have no idea how they run this platform so badly 😭
It would be nice if you guys had a idea, movie request page in which we could submit movie scenes to react or vote on what movies to react to.. And maybe it cost half a producer coin
Even though the original subscribers like us know what the channel was meant for, the live stream of a million subscribers channel will be delivered to more new users who don’t know what the channel originally was like. They are the ones who watch the live and think the TH-camr got millions of subscribers by dealing crypto currency. And they are the ones the hackers meant to cheat.
As a coridor Digital sub we want one offs sometimes. love the series stuff but a lot of us want some one off stuff(just fun af one off videos.) I have 35 greenlight points with nothing to put them into. Ps. I see Sam's point but as a fan from the start, I disagree. Give us some one off content between the series content. Love yall!!
its good that youtube did what they did when people reported what was happening *nut* its also not, because people could potentially weaponise that by just mass reporting a channel because they dont like someones opinion on it despite it being valid, and it'll get taken down
I was convinced for the majority of that hack video that it was fake and at the end they were gonna say gotcha. It was kind of overly produced and cheesy. I'm still confused why they made that
@@Jazmunky to us it is clear that Russia is consolidating their share of a new multipolar order by doing exactly what the US has been doing for the past few decades. In fact, despite their awful methods (the same as US ones) they actually have real political, strategic and historic reasons for going to war, even though we now that's mostly just an excuse.
This was also my reaction. Almost all developed countries have committed both foreign and domestic atrocities at some point in time. Just another conspiracy: it could be a totally different country performing these hacks and making it look like Russia, just to fuel the already fragile relationship between them and the USA....
@@jawbla101 that's it. To me it's clear that the 'problem' here seems to be the decline of US monopoly in that matter. As if invading other countries was just business as usual.
the thing mr beast did wasnt half as bad as what japan did to a comedian once back in the 90s, where they isolated him to a room with no clothes or anything. and he had to survive on sweepstakes prizes, food clothes everything had to come from them. and to get out he had to win items of value till he hit a certain amount. turns out that it took him a year to do it. so they secretly transport him when he wins.....to another room, and they do it to him again, except this time in korea, where the way out was to earn the money for a ticket home. he had got so good at the sweepstakes that he hit the mark in no time, so without telling him he'd won, they raised the target to a second class ticket, then again to a first class ticket. they were basically trying to keep him there as long as possible because of the views they were getting. Moist Critkal did a video on it thats great i highly suggest you guys watch it. its nuts what they did to this guy. At least Mr Beasts friend had clothes to wear.
I have a theory that a session was stolen from one of the corridor pc's and that's why it didn't trigger an 2FA. Also this migth explain why they did not cause more damage, because if the session expires they can't log back in. Also as Sam mentioned SMS 2FA is not that secure, use an app for it instead.
You guys need to make an app to make it easy to watch your subscription channel stuff on TV. Roku or fire TV or whatever. And no casting is not the answer.
#StuntDome idea: Use the full body wrenders of the Corridor Crew, AI and physics simulation and have them navigate a stunt course ala Ninja-Warrior/Fall Guys.
This is very much a 2FA issue with Google. I've seen multiple youtube channels get taken by this group. 6:40 I've seen it happening for OVER A YEAR, so your rep is either uninformed, or lying to you.
how long does it takes for you to monetised the channel again? because I remember when the channel came back after the hackerooni I was able to watch corridor crew videos without any ads for a few days
If you guys decide to fund TH-cam videos using Greenlight, maybe you could provide bonuses to subscribers? For example Corridor subscribers get access to a BTS or extended BTS, or record an exclusive Commentary audio track for the videos.
And Jake missed the opportunity for his greatest VPN sponsored segment of all time.
There's always the next hack?
@@soulance8342 too soon dude. Too soon
except a vpn doesn't protect you from this *in the slightest*
Or the worst opportunity cause a VPn didn't help in this case...
"And if *you* want to hack us, make sure to use today's sponsor..."

Stunt Dome and Shank for shank! Also, I think You''re both onto something, maybe try and aim for those bigger more expensive shorts every three-four months. People will get some shows every week and bigger productions we'll know one will be around the corner!
Have you guys considered using a VPN? You guys could use one to hide your location and encrypt your data. You could probably find a promo code on TH-cam
I am very thankful for the app. My wife and I definitely feel like it is money well spent. I usually just end up listening to podcast on TH-cam though, since the sounds play while my screen is off. Any way that feature could make it onto your app?
Hackers can spoof your cookies to get past 2FA basically making it look like theyre at your common location when logging in so it doesnt send the notification
There are hacking clients that can make it look like they are on your exact computer.
If you guys sold assets, plugins (c4D, blender, after effects) I would buy all of those, especially if you used it in a youtube video. Kits and tools always make life easier as a creative
I see what Sam was saying about wanting the content on the website to be serialised as you are paying on a month by month basis, but I would not feel ripped off if there was a single video that had a lot of time and energy put into it. Especially if you are making something closer to 15-20 minutes, it would feel much more like a short film. Netflix has shows, but Netflix also has movies. You are essentially following this model on a smaller scale. It makes sense for you to have shows, but it could also make sense for you to have short movies! Thanks for keeping me inspired!
Ryan Higa has actually done Jake's Back to Back's idea, called Parkourse! Participants suggest in turn a set of "stunts" the others have to perform in a given area, the one who performed the worst gets an X then 3 X's mean out 😄
I’ve been wanting to do a series where I remake bad or alternate movie posters. I’m an illustrator and movies have always been a passion, especially to do movie posters.
52:59 - Shank for yank? thats the next version of graphics artist react but as a mashup with criminal..
Maybe not an idea for a repeatable storyline, but a one off Corridor. It'd be fun to do a Roger Rabbit/Chip and Dale type of thing with an animator. Doesn't have to be astronomical in cost, if you plan the shots and use CG for blocking, that saves tons of time in layout.
It's one idea, but I think that'd be something new and fun for you guys.
Glad you guys managed to get everything back to how it was
That 2 factor part seems bogus to me. I've recently logged into a new tablet connected to my same ol' wifi and had Google want to authenticate that it's me logging in, it sent that notification to every device I'm logged into with that account.
There is a session hijack attack that bypasses 2fa. Basically, they can make their Chrome browser look like it's your Chrome browser, and if you have an active login from your browser, then that login transfers to their computer and they don't need your password or 2fa code. My understanding is the attack is usually accomplished through an executable file that they email to you, such as by pretending to be a sponsor and they send you an exe that is supposed to be the installer for their program.
#superdome is a good idea in my opinion but I think it was on the stuntman react show that someone mentioned that a stunt competition would give stunt people the incentive to go too far eventually and hurt themselves. I think a way to combat that is to make any injury an immediate disqualification in the name of safety but then still use that stunt clip for some kind of short piece at the end. This is bc I personally believe if a stunt person gets injured if it's in camera that's a shot that needs to be used. I also think that reinforces the incentive so maybe the main thru goal should be pulling off the stunt to a degree where it's the one a director would use over anything else for a short at the end. At least a small piece at the beginning going through how you're addressing safety concerns is probably a must too. This seems like it would be more work than punch4punch overall but have them wear trackers and then you could have lots of reference material maybe
they said this hack has been happening for 2 1/2 months, but i remember this happening to a channel named Brothgar around 3 years ago. same exact thing, videos were privatized and a microstrategy live stream was there in its place
would love to see Son of a Dungeon Season 1 put up on TH-cam with Season 2 out now. In fact it would be cool if older content from the website eventually ends up on youtube. like a *Corridor Classics* series on TH-cam.
I was waiting for this podcast! I realize that the channel did not exist on the React Saturdays! It was indeed a dark day for many....
#suntdome btw
I think the dream for the website would be a new video almost every day. Some being personality driven like crew cuts, some being more educational ones like wrens experiments,challanges, vfx and stuntmen reacts and then some more so pure entertainment or storytelling like Son of a dungeon and wizcops. And once in a while greenlight a singular video, because personally I still want to see films and not just crew type videos
Having seen this so many times before, the way they talk about it being a plot by the Russian government reminds me of elderly people talking about those Indian scam call centers.
haha yeah, idk how they got on that tangent its pretty obvious its just trying to bait you into send them money lol
@@tommyford1301 obvious things are the bait son.. at the end nobody will know
@@tommyford1301 Yeah it Jake who went down that rabbit hole. Remember he anti-vax and anti-mask and pro gun. It hilarious that he was the one to suggest Russian Government. Can you act anymore like a stereotype 😂
It will be batter if you guys explain what you did to get your channel back it's will so helpful for other youtubers who subscribed and follows you
So... this happened to another content creator I follow and she said that the "fix" was to regenerate a stream key. (This was on Twitch.) The problem she's facing right now is the same thing Corridor experienced, cuz although it was in good intention by her followers, it was flagged, and then banned. I don't know if she got her channel operational recently after disputing it, however.
I was at first thinking it was a variation of a brute force attack but with stream keys, but it didn't explain how they could log in and change things.
1st guy speaks to close to mic. "Pff, pff, pop, pop!" - just a little abrasive when listening through headphones at 2.30am when one has insomnia and is trying to sleep.
As a corridor website subscriber, what I want from the website is more cool content that could be a bit riskier.
I feel so bad for reporting the channel during the hack. I think I chose "misleading" something...and then wrote in the text box that Corridor Crew got hacked. I honestly thought it was the best thing to do so hearing on so many videos that I helped them lose thousands of dollars just crushes my heart, man. I'm really sorry.
I personally would like more greenlight options period. Stuntdome would probably get my vote but I think that if you're a subscriber there should be an email on the web page where we can drop ideas we think you guys would enjoy making. This way we have some input but yall are able to filter all the impossible or impractical ideas before they are posited to the masses.
I have no idea if this is it or if it's used as much now, but people can sim swap to get by 2 factor. Listen to the Reply All episode "The Snapchat Thief".
COME ON LET’S GO! #StuntDome !!
These crypto channel hacks have been happening for longer than two months. The scammers hack the channel and private all of the videos sometimes even delete them and then they run a crypto video on a live stream.
27:40 It's true! My buddy who loves lockpicking does it simply out of fascination. He just enjoys learning about locks and the process of lockpicking.
Punch 4 punch is great it's just that dayshift was meh... wish you were on the actual platform. So exicted for the next 2 !!!!! #stuntdome #shrimpacademy
I actually decided to start working towards a career in cyber security this past week so this whole situation has a different perspective to me than it would have 2 weeks ago.
Respect!😁👍
Before I heard you guys mention the punch for punch on one of your videos, I had never heard of it. After I heard of it, it was really hard to find on Netflix. They're doing a terrible job of making it available. They should have put it on your channel.
Once you came back I was no longer getting alerts of new videos for Corridor Crew, they were set to off for some reason.
Lol I keep looking for Punch for Punch on Netflix. Totally forgot about their TH-cam page.
Street Gang Stunt Dome sounds like a game you'd rent from blockbuster
I love Sam's dystopian take on American Gladiator
Greenlight #stuntdome
34:15 - I agree completely with Nick.
#StuntDome, let's goooo
Stunt Dome may never be a reality show but I will give all my pp points to seeing it as a Corridor short!
Im learning the entire hacking thing so that when i become good enough i can hack like people like you and then tell you how i did it and how to counter act it 😂
I felt sorry for you about what happened to your channel, but I’m pleased it finally got back to normal. Hope the people who did this get caught, and get the karma they deserve, but it will be a tricky process. This sort of thing should never have happened to you all. You’re a wonderful channel and I love all the content you produce.
About what the personal gain of the hacker was, generally these stream say that they are giving a big giveaway with a link (this link doesn't show on description, only on video, maybe to not get flag by youtube automatically? idk). In this link it promises that can double the amount you sent to them and sent you back, but of course, they don't double it, they never give it back. So it was not a attempt to raise bitcoin or something like that. They usually use some big millionaire guy to seem more authentic, this happen a lot in other streams, they usually use elon musk with a QR code on video stream.
Why have they not considered its that tucked up AI they created stuck in her influence house !
On the Punch for Punch stuff, I thought it was great. I didnt like going to the other channel and found the Still Watching channel very confusing. Its not something I would subscribe to. It very much seems in line with the rest of your content and I actually thought it was going to be another run of content specifically like that. Pretty much like a X Artists React episode just out in the wild and more production behind the scenes stuff.
As for what id like to see on the platform, its mostly usability stuff. The main one being I would REALLY like it to not autoplay content I've already seen. I view the platform as a way to further support you all because I enjoy your content, I don't need more pull to want to go there. I chose to go there and pay because of exactly what you do on youtube. I still consume most of your content on youtube honestly. Id love a punch of punch spin off though if you want a specific point to content on that platform.
Also a thought on motive. It’s possible micro strategy has an affiliate marketing program. Many affiliate marketers use black hat means to generate leads. Affiliate marketers can be anyone. The entire spam industry is built on affiliate programs.
This video was NOT sponsored by ExpressVPN. Express and both Node missed a great opportunity:(
VPN wouldn't help them here... And the hacker was using a VPN making it impossible to find who he was. So it would be promoting having protection against being caught this case?
As those attacks are basically identical it sounds for me as some exploit published and used now by independent hackers 'trying it out'. On the other hand it's strange that TH-cam is aware of such problem and was not able to prevent it with some additional checks/confirmations with other admins. Maybe it's not common enough, nor worth it to develop such changes.
Recently YT has been struggling with many things. My page shows me many videos I have already watched or videos I don't even care... Even the page doesnt load videos so I have to refresh it. Today I noticed the app is being changing again and commenting is less comfortable. I have no idea how they run this platform so badly 😭
Same thing happened to Aunty Donna earlier this year. Such a weird hack.
It would be nice if you guys had a idea, movie request page in which we could submit movie scenes to react or vote on what movies to react to.. And maybe it cost half a producer coin
Google 2FA is not as "secure" as you want to the point i know a few clients are moving away from it as it may void their security compliances lol
So many youtubers had this happen
:( they are still reuploading old videos as we speak
Sam! Never change :)
Even though the original subscribers like us know what the channel was meant for, the live stream of a million subscribers channel will be delivered to more new users who don’t know what the channel originally was like. They are the ones who watch the live and think the TH-camr got millions of subscribers by dealing crypto currency. And they are the ones the hackers meant to cheat.
As a coridor Digital sub we want one offs sometimes. love the series stuff but a lot of us want some one off stuff(just fun af one off videos.) I have 35 greenlight points with nothing to put them into. Ps. I see Sam's point but as a fan from the start, I disagree. Give us some one off content between the series content. Love yall!!
When you been hacked one time - you might be targeted again as they see that you have weak security..
its good that youtube did what they did when people reported what was happening *nut* its also not, because people could potentially weaponise that by just mass reporting a channel because they dont like someones opinion on it despite it being valid, and it'll get taken down
I was convinced for the majority of that hack video that it was fake and at the end they were gonna say gotcha. It was kind of overly produced and cheesy. I'm still confused why they made that
It amazes me to be watching this from latin america and seeing what the take on Russia is from people in the USA. I mean, it is really jaw dropping.
Yeah, that jump to "must have the Russian government" is Wild!
How so? Do you have a lot less animosity to Russia over there? Not trying to argue, genuinely interested
@@Jazmunky to us it is clear that Russia is consolidating their share of a new multipolar order by doing exactly what the US has been doing for the past few decades. In fact, despite their awful methods (the same as US ones) they actually have real political, strategic and historic reasons for going to war, even though we now that's mostly just an excuse.
This was also my reaction. Almost all developed countries have committed both foreign and domestic atrocities at some point in time.
Just another conspiracy: it could be a totally different country performing these hacks and making it look like Russia, just to fuel the already fragile relationship between them and the USA....
@@jawbla101 that's it. To me it's clear that the 'problem' here seems to be the decline of US monopoly in that matter. As if invading other countries was just business as usual.
the thing mr beast did wasnt half as bad as what japan did to a comedian once back in the 90s, where they isolated him to a room with no clothes or anything. and he had to survive on sweepstakes prizes, food clothes everything had to come from them. and to get out he had to win items of value till he hit a certain amount. turns out that it took him a year to do it. so they secretly transport him when he wins.....to another room, and they do it to him again, except this time in korea, where the way out was to earn the money for a ticket home. he had got so good at the sweepstakes that he hit the mark in no time, so without telling him he'd won, they raised the target to a second class ticket, then again to a first class ticket. they were basically trying to keep him there as long as possible because of the views they were getting. Moist Critkal did a video on it thats great i highly suggest you guys watch it. its nuts what they did to this guy. At least Mr Beasts friend had clothes to wear.
is it already snowing at Jakes?
Almost 2 year later and TH-cam still hasn’t done anything about this. Channels are still getting hacked by Crypto scams to this day
I have a theory that a session was stolen from one of the corridor pc's and that's why it didn't trigger an 2FA. Also this migth explain why they did not cause more damage, because if the session expires they can't log back in. Also as Sam mentioned SMS 2FA is not that secure, use an app for it instead.
You guys need to make an app to make it easy to watch your subscription channel stuff on TV. Roku or fire TV or whatever. And no casting is not the answer.
#StuntDome idea: Use the full body wrenders of the Corridor Crew, AI and physics simulation and have them navigate a stunt course ala Ninja-Warrior/Fall Guys.
Wizard cops series!
This is very much a 2FA issue with Google. I've seen multiple youtube channels get taken by this group. 6:40 I've seen it happening for OVER A YEAR, so your rep is either uninformed, or lying to you.
i have to many points left to spend, please get a greenlight tab just so i can give it points and that money just goes to whatever you want.
What headphones does Jake use?
how long does it takes for you to monetised the channel again? because I remember when the channel came back after the hackerooni I was able to watch corridor crew videos without any ads for a few days
Jake is so smart man
If you guys decide to fund TH-cam videos using Greenlight, maybe you could provide bonuses to subscribers? For example Corridor subscribers get access to a BTS or extended BTS, or record an exclusive Commentary audio track for the videos.
