Plagued 4chan - the Internet hate machine

[jaryan patriot]

Apparently the algorithm that generates a "random" public ID for you in each thread is made by some retard. So if someone knows the server-side salt, they can brute-force your IP from the publicly visible hash with other publicly visible information, which is simply "post_time+thread_id+ip_address+salt"... Also I'd speculate one could brute-force the server-side salt too with this information with modern hardware, assuming it isn't ridiculously large. This is because you know the country of the poster thanks to the flag, so the IPv4 search space can be reduced to the networks of one single country. However, I notice there is a substr call that only takes 8 characters from the final hash, I personally have no idea how reasonable it is to brute-force an IP out of a truncated hash like this.

The threads mentioning this are getting nuked by mods.

I'm no cybersecurity expert but isn't using the same salt for everything extremely bad? The function in the code doesnt seem to have any parameter besides the salt file itself.

You could possibly deduce it by making posts from your own IP and checking it against the poster ID you get, right?

/mu/ Kpop thread notes the "safety shorts" the girls are wearing now aren't protecting anything

I remember these kinds of pics from early 2000s internet. But then they were club photos showing underwear printing through stretchy tops, or celeb pictures. It's almost as if thin stretchy fabric doesn't perfectly block underwear with bright lights around, like camera flashes or stage lights. But I guess every generation has to figure this out on their own.

These are the people that didn't update their server software for 10+ years and got hacked by a simple PDF exploit.

How many new people came to the farms from the sharty attack?

Plenty, even just this thread had plenty of rapefugees announce themselves.

We had quite a lot during the initial downtime, but a good portion didn't stay or are now lurking quietly.

I just got off a month "range-ban" for posting.. wait for it.. anti-catholic shit. Range banning when I live in a rural area as if though anyone goes there from where I'm from.
I found a connection between the catholics and the joos. both hate the bible/the printing-press.

4chan and Porn site investigated by Ofcom over online safety​

The online message board 4chan is being investigated by the UK communications regulator over failure to comply with recently introduced online safety rules.

Ofcom says it has received complaints over potential illegal content on the website, which has not responded to its requests for information.

Under the Online Safety Act, online services must assess the risk of UK users encountering illegal content and activity on their platforms, and take steps to protect them from it.

Ofcom is also investigating porn provider First Time Videos over its age verification checks, and seven file sharing services over potential child sexual abuse material.

4chan has been contacted for comment.
Ofcom says it requested 4chan's risk assessment in April but has not had any response.

The regulator will now investigate whether the platform "has failed, or is failing, to comply with its duties to protect its users from illegal content".

It would not say what kind of illegal content it is investigating.

Ofcom has the power to fine companies up to 10% of their global revenues, or £18m - whichever is the greater number.

4chan has often been at the heart of online controversies in its 22 years, including misogynistic campaigns and conspiracy theories.

Users are anonymous, which can often lead to extreme content being posted.

It was the subject of an alleged hack earlier this year, which took parts of the website down for over a week.

How can you keep your child safe online?​

Seven file sharing services also failed to respond to requests for information from the regulator.

They are Im.ge, Krakenfiles, Nippybox, Nippydrive, Nippyshare, Nippyspace and Yolobit.

Ofcom also says it has received complaints over potential child sexual abuse material being shared on these platforms.

Separately, porn provider First Time Videos, which runs two websites, is being investigated into whether it has adequate age checks in place to stop under-18s accessing its sites.

Platforms which host age-restricted content must have "robust" age checks in place by July.

Ofcom does not specify exactly what this means, but some platforms have been trialling age verification using facial scanning to estimate a user's age.

Social media expert Matt Navarra told BBC News earlier this year facial scanning could become the norm in the UK.

Can cUcKs even do anything about it, other than DNS ban it in their shithole caliphate? Sure, they can persecute their own citizens if they try to access it anyway, but who cares about the british.

OI, YA GOT A LOICENSE FOR THOSE ANIME TITS?

I'm sure several boards would have been willing to write a response, had they known one was due. One post at a time.

Really glad somebody just ignored those snaggle-toothed clock-worshipping morphodites. Show how impotent they really are, stuck on their dreary little island of shit and fog and rats, repulsed by freedom like a vampire to a cross.

Why didn't 4Chan block the UK and get a lawyer to tell them to fuck off? The farms literally put a blueprint down on how to handle this shit

But Null went a step further and blocked Anglos for their own safety, accidentally resolving the situation to Ofcock's satisfaction. To clarify, they got the strongly worded letter before Null decided to block them, preventing any fun legal showdown.

If a website wants Ofcom to fuck off, geoblocking the UK is all you need to do, apparently. If 4chan doesn't decide to do that, we get to see what happens next. Could be something ranging from "nothing ever happens", to a DNS block from their end, to blocking Good Smile imports.

What are they gonna do, send paki ninjas to Hiro's address?

This thing is probably as toothless as the TV loicence thing they got going over there. You can probably ignore them with no consequences.

That's what I'm saying though. They need to block the UK, then geofence them off. They would be retarded not to.

They could fuck with them if they aren't careful. They need to nip this in the bud fast.

I prefer our approach of just telling them to go fuck themselves via counsel.

I hope they see what happens if they don't even bother geoblocking, though it would be kind of silly since Hiro geoblocks half the fucking planet just to force people to buy passes.

Hopefully the few anons that remain aren't cucked like a good portion of them are.

Saying Ofcom has the power to fine companies is incredibly disingenuous. That's like saying I have the power to fly. It's only true in our imaginations. Tell them to piss off and deal with it.
