Confessions of a script kiddie

Filed under: Internet, Life — vector_black @ 2:28 AM

So! I tried uploading photos of my trip and ended up getting my IP banned by wedge’s hosting company. This is what happens when you forget your login. I can only imagine what it looked like on their side of things. Random IP address starts trying to log in unsuccessfully through the FTP port for half an hour using a half dozen different incorrect passwords — it’s like I was Adrian Lamo, the Helpful Hacker. I would have banned me too. However, being banned turned out to be solvable by whining/crying to the correct people. This does not help me remember my password, though.

In conclusion: I missed you guys, but you get no photos. For now.
Also: Bots are spamming one of my old updates.

  1. Wow, would you look at that. That’s absurd.
