@iagox86 450,442/748,081 (60.2%) of Gawker hashes cracked so far. Thanks to everybody who's shared their results with us!


Also, I've been home since Dec 4. :)

[Sidoh]

Cool. :)

Haha. I saw this on the news and thought "I bet iago is up to something..."

Scary that I was right!

We have a much bigger password list from a much higher profile site (a financial one in fact) that we're sitting on. We don't want to be the first ones to break the story for fear of legal action, so we're cracking way and waiting for somebody else to slip up :)

So.. is this a Canadian site?  :)

[Joe]

You say "we". You and the other 11 iagi? Or is S.S. (I think I like that, The S.S.) no longer a one-man operation?

No, I'm not really sure what gave you that idea.. :P

[deadly7]

No, I'm not really sure what gave you that idea.. :P

Why would you be afraid of legal action if you aren't a national of the US? I highly doubt Canada would extradite you like that, if push came to shove.

I mean, assuming you haven't gotten passwords to the NYSE admin accounts or something. If you did that I would bow.

Cmon deadly, this is the guy who h4xx3d Facebook.

I don't care if it's Canadian, American, or European data - releasing it without the company's knowledge is wrong, both legally and ethically.

And for what it's worth, I've already talked to investigators about the situation. The company in question is taking this very seriously.

I was speaking from a purely legal standpoint, not a moral one. FWIW I agree with you that working with the company to secure their data is more ethical. And makes you more money.

Even legally - if I cause significant financial damage to a company, which this potentially could (especially being the X-mas season), they're going to go after me no matter which country I'm in (provided it isn't an unfriendly one).

Quick!  Move to Iraq!

Isn't Iraq owned by the US now?
