Remember when hackers left cool messages with animated skull gifs and ASCII art?

Better days

This is what happens when you let 12 year olds play in the big leagues. I gotta give them credit for the style though. It made me chuckle.

Anyone else unable to log in? Reset my password and no luck. Not sure if emailing the admin is a smart move right now

[-] sexy_peach@feddit.de 134 points 1 year ago

Trying to log in to a hacked website also isn't the smart move right now I believe

[-] ransom@lemmy.dbzer0.com 70 points 1 year ago

no it's ok, I have McAfee Antivirus

[-] SomeBoyo@feddit.de 40 points 1 year ago

True, whatever it gives you can't be worse than McAfee

[-] BitterSweet@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 year ago

y pay for antivirus, Binbows Defender is plenty

I hope that's satire antivirus are useless, unless you're using a hardware firewall, please don't.
Otherwise, use Tails preferably with a disposable device's or public owned one.

Yeah it's satire, McAfee has been a joke for a long ass time.

Tails is legit though, good recommendation in general

Idk. I started getting Windows notifications about McAfee which I immediately clicked and they asked me to call a number. I kind man with an Indian accent asked me to transfer $3000 which I felt was reasonable. He said thank you very much and I'm protected. I don't see McAfee anywhere on my machine but I assume it's just hiding so viruses can't tell it's there.

You mean, run OPNsense to log in?

[-] abieNathanTheyThem@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sure that's an option, preferably pfSense, it's the longest standing & most advanced.
In ordinary time it should be mandatory for every person to have one, not when shit hit the roof.

Glad I stopped using the tracker and my account got deleted.

[-] fhein@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Difficult to know if actually deleted, or just marked as inactive in the user database.

[-] Deletecat@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

guess we'll find out if the data gets leaked somewhere

[-] fhein@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Yep, and I think the best thing one can do is to not reuse passwords. Just wanted to point it out so previous poster doesn't think they're guaranteed to be unaffected by the hack because their account is supposedly deleted.
