I am not familiar with this Bobby Joe, can you please expand on it? I have only stated what I know to be true regarding something that I know a great deal about as it is part of my job to protect my clients from such hacking with powerful software solutions.

Don't deny the dangers of shooting it up with SQL. You're just enabling that kind of depraved behavior.

Friend, may I suggest that you escort yourself over to the "introductions" thread, and tell us all about yourself. I'm sure the congregation would be happy to welcome you.

Old threads about hacking are not going to give you a good reputation.

Re: Is Your Son a Computer Hacker?

Have you ever seen a victim of a cartesian join friend? You wouldn't say that if you witnessed the kind of pain and suffering it causes. In my job I’ve had to burry far too many kids because of that.

Re: Is Your Son a Computer Hacker?

Sorry to break the news to you Daniel, but this is nonsense. SQL Injection is NOT a drug... SQL Injection is a method a hacker uses to bypass security of an online database in an attempt to freely access data that is restricted. The finer details of it are when a program interacts with a database there are security parameters which need to be met before database entry is allowed, and with SQL Injection the code used to determine whether or not these parameters are actually met are completely missed out by entering a string into the entry fields that completely negates the security part of the code.

It comes as a great surprise to me that you can claim to be a hacker based on such a serious lack of knowledge regarding this... but who am I to judge, so I won't!

I also want to say though... that being a computer hacker can be good and bad. I mean... if you hack something that is wrong then you are fighting sin and therefore are actually in the right... if you understand.

If you want lessons on how to wipe out evil in the world electronically then just let me know!

Don't forget to tell him that when he starts out with those newb friendly hacker programs, to test it out on IP: 127.0.0.1

^Grammatical errors corrected^

A computer language designed for the retrieval and manipulation of information in databases (originally and chiefly relational databases).

SQL injection is a technique that exploits a security vulnerability occurring in the database layer of an application. The vulnerability is present when user input is either incorrectly filtered for string literal escape characters embedded in SQL statements or user input is not strongly typed and thereby unexpectedly executed. It is in fact an instance of a more general class of vulnerabilities that can occur whenever one programming or scripting language is embedded inside another.

SQL and mySQL are forms of database manipulation and retrieval--not a form of drug, as you have suggested.

Re: Is Your Son a Computer Hacker?

As many of you know, I am a former computer hacker that realized the error of my ways and reformed through the Lord. I believe that it is my responsibility now to advise True Christian parents of the warning signs that their child may be a hacker. I stumbled across this article on the internet that summarizes these signs.

Another serious warning sign that your child is a hacker is talk of "SQL Injection". SQL is a dangerous drug similar to LSD but used strictly by the hacker subculture. It is injected into the users arm or leg and is very dangerous. Over 40 cases of missing persons and drug-related deaths are linked to SQL.

Re: Is Your Son a Computer Hacker?

Yeah well nobody ever puts alot of thought in what they say on these bullitens so i just let it pass or joke around with it..you should see the one about goth kids haha!

Actually, on the contrary, I've read that. And the one with the open letter. I might've posted..Not sure.

Re: Is Your Son a Computer Hacker?

You know, in the description of how hackers look..That's not quite right. They can be anyone, at any time, in any place, they can be geeks, they can be jocks, preps, maybe a smart cheerleader if one existed. It could be a teacher, a student, or even some old geezer at the age of 83 who learned to work the power button.

Re: Is Your Son a Computer Hacker?

"If your son has undergone a sudden change in his style of dress, you may have a hacker on your hands. Hackers tend to dress in bright, day-glow colors. They may wear baggy pants, bright colored shirts and spiky hair dyed in bright colors to match their clothes. They may take to carrying "glow-sticks" and some wear pacifiers around their necks. (I have no idea why they do this) There are many such hackers in schools today, and your son may have started to associate with them. If you notice that your son's group of friends includes people dressed like this, it is time to think about a severe curfew, to protect him from dangerous influences."

This person seems to have confused a 'hacker' with a 'raver' in the category of appearance. Ravers are the ones that wear clothing like that when they go to nightclubs or special dance parties called 'raves'.

Just clearing up a mistake

hah i love raves..despite the drug use and ive got spiked hair i must be a hacker(P.L.U.R.)

Re: Is Your Son a Computer Hacker?

One little thing that I would like to point out is that there are far more than just two colours of hackers--there are truly many, many shades and hues (as corny as that sounds). Just off the top of my head, I can list white, black, grey, blue, and red, just to name a few,

The point is, hackers are an elitist group of technological aficionados, some putting their skills to use for derogatory purposes, others purely to find information, leaving virtually no trace of their ever having been there.

Rant aside, I just thought I would point out that the wide world of hacking is is many shades of grey and very seldom just in simple black-and-white. Anyways, yes, hackers are a quickly disappearing group and often times misunderstood to the point of severe character assassination. Admittedly, yes, there are a good number of black hats running around, but you don't usually hear about them--it is generally just script kiddies that are running around with pre-made PHP and MySQL injection scripts that don't know how to code past simple HTML elements, if that.

The script kiddies are the underbelly, the scourge of the computing world--they have little, if any, idea what it is they are doing and simply do it to "look cool" or so that they can claim "Oh, I hacked that site yesterday" and have no place in the true world of hacking.

White hats, to elaborate on your previous point, hack either for a company, or for the acquisition of knowledge. They will hack into a web site simply to gain access to otherwise restricted knowledge and wealths of information, entering and leaving with as little disturbance as possible to the mainstream traffic. Others will fill their time with reverse-engineering programs--taking a program, breaking it apart, and finding out exactly how it works and what the original author was intending with the original script.

Re: Is Your Son a Computer Hacker?

Friends, before we take too much notice of the above article, I might remind you all of where it was originally posted:

https://www.adequacy.org

This site was, for a short period around 2001-2002, a hotbed for the forces of Secular Communism. This article was, in fact, posted as a parody of our most Godly nation and faith. It seems that Daniel has either been beguiled by the forces of Satan at work there, or is, in fact, no closer to accepting Christ than Mel Gibson.

Re: Is Your Son a Computer Hacker?

I hung out with boys in middle school. That's how I know. I don't want to, but I do.

Then you wouldn't have bothered to ask them about it.. nor would you have listened to them.
You sought the company of boys because you are perverted and wanted to fornicate with them.

And my father wouldn't give a crap if I were injecting heroin and fornicating with Polacks. He is a Jew, and those people have no sense of morality or decency whatsoever!

I have to agree with that.
Christ-killers are a bad and amoral breed.
