Hacker stories

Post moments you felt like a super hacka

>get samsung genio touch for christmas present
>first smartphone i owned
>flash custom firmware
>12 year old me literally feels like a god
>samsung shitphone with ios theme

Ehhr I might have figured out how to abuse a trial membershit for a pr0n site so my account worked totally unrestricted as if I had a paid one.

To the moment I still don't know if that's a win or just sad, but here we go.

>make jammer
>block link that opens public garage door from 300 feet away
>frustrated people call maintenance
>I let them open door the moment maintenance arrives
Not really hack but I like fucking with wireless shit.

> be me

> go on vacation
> learn that the country I'm in considers port scanners to be cyberweapons
> mfw I have an illegal cyberweapon

sound like some keks

Holy fucking kek. This sounds amazing. You definitely got some people really really mad. I'd love doing this to my shitty neighbor

Yea and you only need 20$,basic knowledge of rf and 100 lines of pic assembly.

You could use a cheap radio but a dedicated jammer can run for hours without overheathing. I use sx1278 rfic in lora mode.

>Dont have internet cause im poor

My parents thought it was autism, but it was alot of fun to figure this one out

Sister was in vacation to Spain. Some creep broke into their room at night and looked through her suitcase with his smartphone flashlight.
Sister came back and apparently surprised him because he fled through the window, but left his phone with the still open flashlight in her suitcase.

It was encrypted and I managed to wipe it despite it being bound to his Google account. She uses it as her main phone now.

It's an HTC A9 and I'm pretty proud of it. The phone was released freshly at that time, the shithead lost 400€ or so that night.

then i went to leech off my own porn from public wifis

Is this going to get me a visit from some old nerds in a van?

Of course not, speak freely, citizen, we are only here to deliver some flowers.

>Sub7
Yezzir

Good damn. I would make fun of you but I could totally see myself doing that just for the fun of it

>2007, back in uni
>barely a few had mobile net back then, most people used their laptops on the uni wifi to browse the net
>bought my laptop to the school myself too, noticed that there are a few people doing the game in the biggest auditorium
>connected to the wifi
>started a rogue DHCP server which only gave out "bad" IPs and no DNS server/gateway
>everyone who connected after me was unable to connect to the net while a lot of people had no problems as they were already connected when I started the DHCP server

The meltdown was hilarious. If there are any uni fags reading this, I highly recommend trying it out. Most uni wifis are made of wifi repeaters and/or hotspots with the DHCP server/router being "far away" so your computer replies DHCPOFFER faster than it.

What country are you in? This sounds super illegal

>plot twist: you just wiped the vm it runs, the real os is headless and he has remote access to it. he uses the gps to stalk your sister

if someone understands whats going on then yea

It happened in the early 2000s, when my country hadn't any law against this kind of activity. At most, I would risk being kicked out of university. Now it's a crime and I certainly wouldn't do it again.

10 year old me had fun

It's raining gifts from our glorious leader like every year!

The first time I learned how to dual boot Windows and Linux, back in 2004. Good times.

Hint: it's probably a stolen phone

Oh, Networking was blocked in my class.

Tbh more of a rood script kiddie than hacker

Yeah, but now it;s double-stolen so it cancels out and is now not-stolen.

Back in 2013 I used a app called Droid Sheep on my rooted Lg Optimus V and what I did was manage to use it to log into some Jewish guy's Facebook account. All i did was post a status about Chinese food being good and a bunch of other Jews started commenting about their favorite Chinese food and places to check out. I also checked out his messages and there was a kid that messaged him with questions about the Jew for a school assignment. One of the questions asked was What is the rule you live by in life. I replied with Around Black never relax.
