Journal sllort's Journal: New Fyodor Evidence Released 16

Journal by sllort on Tuesday May 20, 2003 @04:56PM

Trollaxor.com has obtained a cache of Fyodor's "Troll Hunting 101", briefly posted to www.insecure.org/tmp/trolls in 2002 by Fyodor shortly after hacking the computer of a Slashdot prankster. I have been advised that the images and content in this cache have been modified to protect the name and personal information of Fyodor's hacking victim (SumDeusExMachina) which Fyodor initially saw fit to publish. The modifications appear in bold and are clearly marked as REDACTED.

I would like to invite anyone who witnessed this firsthand in 2002 to post a comment certifying that this content is accurate to the best of their recollection below in the comment section.

I personally certify that this content was posted to www.insecure.org in 2002, and that I personally loaded and witnessed it.

This discussion has been archived. No new comments can be posted.

My recollection is hazy at best, but I would say this was what Frodo posted.

I remember it, because in the middle of August 2003, I was doing a network security audit at work and needed to find some nmap documentation, so I checked insecure.org for it. I was shocked by the "Pathetic Life of a Slashdot Troll" article. I never knew that Fydor would stoop to the level of a criminal. I'd actually used nmap only for legal purposes (security auditing), and I assumed that's why nmap existed. I guess I was wrong.

I don't know what's more sad, the fact that this even happened, or the fact

  Hi Gendou! That was an excellent and believable post, so why did you have to ruin it by using your troll account?! Don't you have any others? Nobody will believe someone who regularly posts to trolltalk [slashdot.org] and whose Fans list [slashdot.org] reads like a who's who of Trolling. You are even on the No More Trolls Blacklist [slashdot.org]!
  I respect your work, but please be more careful next time! Slip-ups like this hurt our credibility.

Of course the interview doesn't include your question. Idiots.
