So you want to be a cool "leet" hacker,
and meet "so-called icons" of the "Hacker Community".

But some of those "so-called icons" have their own dark agenda.
The only thing you'll meet at "The Next HOPE" is a collection of "Horny Old Pedophiles Everywhere".
The only "backdoor" they're interested in, is the one you sit on.

Save your $75.00 or $100.00 and go to DEFCON.
You won't have to worry about being invited into a back room for a "massage".

We can only advise you to avoid this collection of deviants.
The choice must ultimately be yours.
But if you're foolish enough not to heed this warning,
and decide to visit the Horny Old Pedophiles Everywhere,
We can only advise this.

Ever wonder why 2600 Magazine doesn't pay their writers?
Why pay individuals for material when you can just rip it off!

Have you ever been so disgusted that 2600 Magazine just takes articles off some BBS or forum and makes a profit from it?
Well here are some of those raw files taken off BBS's and forums before the profiteering gluttons at 2600 add their moniker to them.

Emmanuel Goldstein is rounding up his pedophile posse for his eighth unofficial NAMBLA conference this July in New York City.

The goal of this conference is to satisfy their lust for boys who are naive to their personal methods of "backdoor" hacking.
As many individuals have rudely learned, the only "massage" the 2600 crowd is interested in is massaging your prostrate.

The IIRG urges everyone to boycott this filthy gay orgy of antiquated individuals and posers.
We had hoped that the liberal insanity of 2600 magazine,
and Emmanuel Goldstein was a thing of the past after "The Last HOPE".

We are told by a disgusted 2600 staffer,
that the profiteering and socialist attitude of Emmanuel Goldstein (AKA Eric Corley),
is totally out of control and can be witnessed by his inflammatory ramblings on Twitter.

His need for another socialist love fest is driven by his need for money as well as his desire for young boys.

If you've ever been unfortunate enough to attend a prior HOPE conference,
you'll know the insanity of asking $75.00 for pre-registration, and $100.00 at the door.

If you really must go to a conference,
save your cash and dignity and go to DEFCON.

Apple Tells Developers To Behave as Racy App Booted

Want to see a supermodel jiggle on your iPhone?

Sorry, there's no app for that. At least not anymore.

In an apparent response to complaints,

Apple has removed Wobble iBoobs from the ranks of the more than 100,000
available downloads in its App Store last month.

And in a message to other purveyors of racy content,

the computer giant is warning developers to behave.

Shake-Up

According to reports Friday,
John Atherton, the designer of Wobble iBoobs, received a letter from Apple
telling him that his app was inappropriate.
The program allows the user to designate zones of a photo that will wobble when
the iPhone is shaken.
While this trick can be applied to a photo of a martini shaker or a pogo stick,
the app's name makes its intention pretty clear.

The letter reportedly read, "The App Store continues to evolve, and as such, we
are constantly refining our guidelines.
Your application, Wobble iBoobs (Premium Uncensored),
contains content that we had originally believed to be suitable for
distribution.
However, we have recently received numerous complaints from our customers about
this type of content, and have changed our guidelines appropriately."

However, several tech writers on Friday were noting which programs were, and
were not, still available, and some noted that titles similar to "iBoobs" were still live.
Some speculated that it may take time to purge the App Store of iPorn,
while others noted that Apple has a history of inconsistency in its screening process.

Review Process

"Whenever we receive customer Relevant Products/Services complaints about
objectionable content, we review them," Apple spokesperson Trudy Muller says.
"If we find these apps contain inappropriate material,
we remove them and request the developer make any necessary changes in order to be distributed by Apple."

But when asked if apps that might be more explicit, but have received no
complaints, would continue to be available, Muller said in an e-mail that she
had no further comment.

Apple's App Store has far more offerings than its competitors,
claiming more than three billion downloads of more than 140,000 programs in less
than two years.
Its closest competitor, Google's Android Market, recently surpassed 20,000
available applications.

This is the second time this month that Apple has put restrictions on
developers.

Earlier, it warned that programs that collect user data Relevant
Products/Services strictly for the purpose of targeting them for ads would be
denied, a move many saw as protecting users from spam while others saw Apple as paving
the way for its own push into mobile advertising.

In a step in the more lenient direction, Apple in December began allowing some
applications to use private program interfaces, contrary to an earlier policy.

In other App Store news, Apple has raised the 3G network Relevant
Products/Services download limit from the App Store and iTunes from 10MB to 20MB.

Robot Heineken Dispenser - a nice idea, but bad implementation

This robot is displayed walking across one of the bars of London.

The robot was supposed to travel a predetermined route,
and pour beer into each customers glass that presented it to the neck fixture.

Things didn't go well, let's hope the developers will tweak his creation.

Encyclopedia of Cybercrime

There are today no more compelling sets of crime and security threats facing nations,
communities, organizations, groups, families and individuals than those encompassed by cybercrime.
For over fifty years crime enabled by computing and telecommunications technologies have increasingly threatened societies,
as they have become reliant on information systems for sustaining modernized living.
Cybercrime is not a new phenomenon, rather an evolving one with respect to adoption of information technology (IT) for abusive and criminal purposes.
Further, by virtue of the myriad ways in which IT is abused,
it represents a technological shift in the nature of crime rather than a new form of criminal behavior.
Understanding the subject, then, is imperative to combating it and to addressing it at various levels.

The Jaded "History of Hackig"

We were sent a RAR of this freely available ,
rather jaded Discovery Channel documentary on the supposed history of hacking.
While we appreciate the thought, it's available at Google videos.

The video features the standard media whores of Steve Wozniak,
John Draper and 2600 Magazine cash cow Kevin Mitnick.

This documentary only scratches the surface of what can be called the "History of Hacking""
and claims of abilities should be taken with a grain of salt.
