Hackers Attack YouTube

[Rakkana]

Hackers. Nerd rebels.

We salute you!

It wasn't a 4chan raid, would everyone stop saying that? They get too much bad press around here from people who've never even been there.

This was the work of eBaum's world.

Dude its the internet, no matter how much we say it was eBaum's world no one will believe...

Who cares? This isn't going to lower anyone's opinion of 4chan, either they like the site and won't believe or think it's funny, or they believe the site is just a festering pit of unbelievably disgusting fetish based porn and already despise it enough that this won't really make any difference

Eh, true enough I guess.

"4chan, able to troll by just not doing a damn thing."

More like: "4Chan, years of trolling forums by posting the most depraved porn ever conceived has PR consequences"

 

[Irridium]

Some people have very strange ideas about "fun". Rather than spend the Fourth of July weekend with friends, fireworks and possibly some tasty beverages

Really? Really? Really?

What a great way to start an article, insulting people.

It was just a joke. Lighten up.

There, thats better.

Wait, is that the sun? IT BURNS!

I'm sorry, is there a medical term for what's wrong with 4Chan?

Yes. Dickwaddery. It's a recognised condition and usually needs to be treated within hours to avoid serious side-effects. It seems some people didn't make it to the hospital in time and have been prescribed regular doses of Internet to help relieve the pain.

[sub]I think I just took that joke too far...[/sub]

So in other words Youtube became cool for an hour or so?

Young, and clearly stupid easily influenced, girls getting Shock Pornogrphy is your idea of cool?.. I'm sure the police would like to made aware of this fact.

I'm sure they'd also like my recipe for spaghetti bolognese. What's your point, snackcake?

My point is that they're not doing it to make a cool statement, they're doing it because they want to show young girls dicks and this is their excuse. It's like trying to act like a rapist is a rapist for some reason other than they are, in fact, a rapist.

wait, what?

Did anyone make sense of that?

I believe the first part is something along the lines of: "They just wanted to show people shock porn, and Justin Beiber was a convenient excuse to do so" but the bolded statement makes no sense to me, I get what it says, but I don't see how it applies to the discussion.

Anyway, 4chan aren't exactly known for making excuses or trying to preserve forum PR, if they wanted to just show shock porn, they would have hit EVERY video with it, not just the Beiber ones.

I do believe thwe bolded part is saying "It's like a rapist trying to say they raoe people due to their puppy dying at a young age, rather than simply admit they are rapists"

Oh thank you, I see the problem now, he should have said it's like a RAPIST trying to act....blah blah blah

 

[TriggerHappyAngel]

lol... "hackers"... :')

Very much indeed. I don't know where you come from, but here, there is only one way to act like a rappist... and well... It's not recommended

 

[Nitpicker of the Wastes]

It really didn't seem all that bad at first. Oooh, scrolling comments. Really scary. I'm glad that they sorted it out, though. I needed to see the inFamous 2 stuff from E3.

Just suck it up and admit that your site sucks. It's OK. We won't judge you too harshly.

I think insulting someone just because they don't enjoy being insulted isn't a very nice thing to post.

 

[johnman]

While I wouldn't call youtube as the foundation of the internet, this is still pretty dam funny

 

[Danpascooch]

That obviously means ebaum's world was behind the attacks.

To clarify, Whenever ebaums or 4chan "raid" something, they always act like they're from the other. If people were claiming 4chan was responsible, it was ebaums, if people are claiming ebaums, it was 4chan.

Why is that? To throw off law enforcement?

 

[fgdfgdgd]

"still shake the foundation of the internet."

Uh-huh. Does your life lack such meaning that you need to shake up something that exists as 1s and 0s?
I've never been able to grasp the reason why people do this, it just seems juvenile and ridiculously stupid.

like graffiti, fast cars, explosions, rediculous action movies and other things that kept The Govenator employed through the 90's ?

OP: i see it as 4chan just reminding us that the internet isn't as safe as some people like; kind of a service really, making us keep a certain fear and respect for every link we click and every time they aren't something horrible.

 

[arcstone]

Whoa, 4chan actually did something?

Been a while now.

 

[Sixties Spidey]

Is it wrong to cheer for 4Chan? Cause I am...

 

[gmaverick019_v1legacy]

Sometimes, I just wanna send every hacker in the world a big fruit basket.

sometimes..


othertimes you rage the shit out of your account being hacked and all your moneyz being gone.


haha but as long as its harmless stuff like this..

+1 brownie pointz to those hackers.

 

[Assassin Xaero]

These guys really need to grow up and find a new hobby...

 

[VickyBit]

I like how the fact that the exploit caused youtube comments to DISAPPEAR on the affected pages meant that youtube actually got less shit for those few hours it lasted.

:V

 

[knhirt]

Anyone over 20 has seen every piece the internet can offer, but tweenish girls? Completely untapped.

Haha, I see what you did there.

That sounds like a pretty good prank though. YouTube never fails as a medium for fucking with people.

 

[Hiphophippo]

Goddamn I love the Internet.

 

[Lucifer dern]

wasnt this like the world metal alience that did this, i got a message from some one there organising it and asking if i wanted to help... wish i did now and the shock porn is fine, if theres little girls watching him there allready to fucked up to be a productive member of any world.
