University of Washington has been hacked once again and their database was leaked. This time they were hacked by N0B0DY and N0LIFE. You can see the information they published on pastebin. You can see the users and WordPress users with their (encrypted) passwords and emails. Once again, hackers used SQL injection to gain access to university’s database. There are more than one vulnerable links that hackers can use to gain access to their database. It is very easy to prevent such attacks and there are more than one ways to do it. If you are too lazy to change your code at least validate the input values. The best way to do this is by using stored procedures and pass the values as parameters instead of building the command string to be executed. It is the most common vulnerability, we have seen hundreds hacks exploding SQL injection and yet there are many websites still vulnerable and just waiting to be hacked.
Before and After transformation in 5 hours
How many time you have watched TV commercials about body fitness products with before and after photos and you were convinced that their product works? This video will show you that you can be tricked to believe anything. It shows an extreme transformation which happens in five hours. If you just see the before and after pictures of the video you imagine that it took months of strict diet and exercise but in reality it took only five hours and a lot of junk food. As you can see it is easier to take the after photo before and the before image after. Watch the video which will make you question everything you have ever watched and you will see in the future.
BTJunkie was shut down permanently
BTJunkie, one of the largest torrent indexes, was shut down permanently. This has nothing to do with law enforcement (directly), they just decided to shut down. The owner of BTJunkie said that the decision was based on the legal actions against the other file-sharing websites, MegaUpload and The Pirate Bay. BTjunkie was never a direct target but when you see others, bigger than you, falling down it makes you fear that your time will come. BTjunkie had millions of visitors every month and those millions must find an alternative. BTJunkie (2005-2012) is now history.

Samsung new funny commercial
I have seen several Samsung commercials but this one is the funniest. It was shown during the Super Bowl to introduce Galaxy Note and of course make fun of Apple. During Super Bowl several technology ads are shown and most of them are very funny and it is the reason some people are watching it. The surprise in the face of Apple fanboys when they see the Galaxy Note is amazing. I also enjoyed the song in the ad, it is I Believe In A Thing Called Love by The Darkness. Galaxy Notes are falling to the hands of Apple fanboys while they are waiting for the next big thing and it frees them from the line. Some thing that this was immature by Samsung but I think those are very serious and they can’t enjoy the humor between companies. When I see people get angry with commercials like this one makes me curious about the reason, if you are not the CEO of the company or you don’t have shares then why are you getting angry?
Learn about ACTA
If you don’t know anything about Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) then you should watch at least this video. It doesn’t matter why you are using internet or you think that it doesn’t affect you, it does. It appears that SOPA and PIPA were just distractions to the real enemy of the internet, ACTA. They have created ACTA in the name of intellectual property rights and to create international standards to protect them. ACTA gives access to everything you do or say over the internet, everything. They will have access in everything that you send and receive over the internet even you emails and chats. And they do this to check if anything you send or receive has to do with intellectual property rights.
Greek Justice Ministry’s website was hacked by Anonymous
The website of the Greek Justice Ministry was hacked by Anonymous. The reason is that Greece joined the International Monetary Fund (IMF) which is basically sacrifices democracy for Greek people. The website was hacked by hacktivists from Greece and Cyprus that belong to Anonymous group. This was only the beginning and if Greece implement the ACTA anti-piracy treaty, hackers will attack again. ACTA is hurting the people and if your government agrees with that it makes people to react. Some people think that defacing a website doesn’t change anything but in my opinion they are mistaken. The attack is now known to most people in Greece and even the ones that didn’t know about IMF and ACTA, by learning about the attack they are informed. Also, defacing a website does hurt (even little) the owner of the website. It is not only about the defacement but the message that comes with it especially nowadays that internet is part of our lives.
Anonymous have recorded FBI conference call
Anonymous released a 16-minute FBI conference call which they discuss ongoing investigations with UK law enforcement officers according to hacking activities. A call that was about tracking and prosecuting hackers who belong in loose-knit hacking group. For such a serious things I thought it would be more official but they are joking and laughing. I didn’t know that arresting hackers was so funny for law enforcement officers. According to Anonymous the call is made on 17 January. It it very embarrassing for the FBI to have hackers listening to their call in which they are discussing about them. Everyone though that FBI would have a better security.
GrayHatz defaced large game sites
GrayHatz, a Turkish hacking group which was created on 2006, defaced nine of the largest game sites. Those websites are Call of Duty, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Spider-Man: Edge of Time, Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, Prototype 2, Infinity Ward (Developer of Call of Duty), The Quantum Of Solace Game, Guitar Hero and DJ Hero 2. Even though I understand the attacks from hackers to some government websites and security companies, hacking game websites is in my opinion pointless. There is a reason behind an attack but that doesn’t mean that every reason is a right one.
A crow that loves sledding
If you think that only humans loves snow and sports you are mistaken. Watch this crow sledding and loving it. It is not happened accidentally, it repeatedly goes sledding again and again and it appears to be excited about it. If you like funny animal video you will love this one. Watch it now because the previous video I had was blocked by YouTube and it might block this one too. Maybe the crow appeared in this video doesn’t like publicity and goes after the one that upload its video on YouTube. Stay tuned for more funny videos.
