    I stumbled across some videos you did including the Xbox hackers one(s) and have enjoyed your content.
    Oddly enough I am from Kentucky too. I have thought of doing an AMA before since I am someone who was in a warez music release group & then founded my own release group all the while being addicted to drugs which was fueling even more crime since I needed lots of money. It is all a crazy & wild ride. But then I get into the whole self doubting thing & think I’m no one special so why & even who would wanna listen? Anyway, maybe we should talk Jack? I don’t know the best way to reach you but admittedly I have not looked into how to do so yet but I’ll try to change that now & see if you’d like to talk.

    This is the most relatable thing I've ever heard. Didn't have much physical abuse but one of my childhood memories is my dad climbing up a pole and hooking my whole neighborhood up with stolen cable in the 90s. I'm only 15 min in and it's sad that guys get no help when it comes to mental health but yet a girl will have all this support. It's bullshit. Can't wait for part 2 if it happens.

      It depends on the people you meet along the way and he got a chance to leave this horrible situation but it was destroyed by someone that probably never had any help either.

    A high strung teacher shrieks in surprise at student, "You stole it!?"

    @MygenteTV 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I had been doing Pentesting testing(not physical) for about 5 years now. I'm an addict to this channel content(started like 2 weeks ago). With this last video here I came to realize something... these companies are just kind of wasting their money in physical Pentesting. Why? Because no country will send 3 or 5 of their best hackers to physically hack US companies. That will be suicide, because if they get caught, there won't be no "oh you got me" stories like those being told here. If a group of guys lets say from china get caught doing something like this, can start even ww3. So yeah, all this sounds cool but is just a waste of money, sure they can do things better but not because some spys will go to their company and hack them on behalf of another country. Instead they should use that money for social engineering. Which is funny because is the only vulnerability companies dont play to bug hunters but they count for 99% of all hacks around the world. This is how companies get hack, just look at UBER. So yeah, they should pay us for social engineering and not these will-never happen scenarios.
