    3:45 "Hacking back would be illegal."
    You are aware gov agency's do stuff illegal stuff all the time and so do companies, Owners and legit everyone. An eye for an eye is what some believe in but that being said with all the people they ticked off and the easy access to d dos that all you need is money it could be literally anyone.

    I got an email to my spam folder the other day claiming that someone had installed a virus on all my devices and if I didn't pay their ransom, all my files would be leaked online as well as videos of me doing naughty things that theyhad captured.
    They didn't even include a crypto address or any links in the email 🤦‍♀️
    It probably sat in my spam folder for a month, and then I deleted it.
    That's my story of the first time in my life I've ever been 'hacked', and the only time the problem wasn't because I intentionally installed something nefarious.

      It just makes me really sad that this pathetic level of quality is what skids have come to.

      @@nogr3369 It's possible because your browser just gives that information away so the website knows what to send back in order for the page to display correctly. The website has access to a lot of settings, software version, available hardware, etc. In fact it's so much information that your browser is more unique than your literal fingerprints on your fingers. So basically with that information you can be tracked and identified around the internet even if you delete cookies or use private browsing.
