This is the new warfare.

It's probably China. Or North Korea. We should probably drop a warning Nuke right in the Yellow Sea just to let them both know we ain't fucking around.

I feel so bad for the kardashians right now. I hope those wonderful people are alright.

You posted this from your phone, didn't you?
I don't own a cell phone, that's how much I hate them. That's also probably why I still single, women won't date you if they can't contact you every moment of every day.

Close. It was your DVR.

There is a Chinese manufacturer makes iot devices such as DVRs and ip cameras that ship their products with default login credentials for ssh and/or telnet access that is not exposed to the consumer so they don't have the option of disabling this access.

There were over a half a million of these devices online, and they were taken over creating a botnet that was directed to DDoS a DNS provider which crippled a number of sites.
