  In an age where “willfully giving out your account password” is called hacking, here I’d call it tomato tomato.

      There’s usually an element of that with cracking passwords. Even if you just triy and pick the right wordlist for a target you’re already engaging in a way. The more you know about them the shorter the wordlist. And if you spend enough time getting to know shit about them you can reduce the wordlist to one entry because they told you the password. But it’s not necessarily a completely different process.

      You can argue it’s a classic ID-10T error in your workflow.

      But nobody has discovered a security vulnerability within the system architecture. This is the system operating as designed, abet with the wrong person standing in front of the terminal.

        That’s cracking, not hacking. If you’re going to be pedantic, be correct.

      It was hacking according to Kevin Mitnick (RIP) so, it’s probably safe to say that your view doesn’t need to be changed.

  313 Team is an Arabic-interest hacker collective, aligned with Iran, Palestine and Iraq, they reportedly used a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack against Truth Social.

  The article seems pretty clear to me. Maybe it was updated?
