They’ve got nothing on that hacker at 127.0.0.1 that fucker has all my files!
But have you tried that address 255.255.255.255?
I hear it’s the Master Key to the Internet…
Stop teaching people how to scream, please.
I never raised any eyebrows at IPs like these in movies and on TV. It’s just internet equivalent of fictitious phone numbers always containing 555.
Yeah by using out-of-bounds numbers they avoid accidentally listing legitimate values who might get upset or free advertising
They could just use IPv6. Legitimately values or not no one is going to understand them, much less get upset by them.
The attack was coming from ::1
Or if that’s too unbelievable, fe80:: has some scary implications while also not likely to ever be a real device.
There are already several reserved IP ranges for this kind of purpose, like 198.51.100.0/24 or 203.0.113.0/24.
Dark web super subnets. IPV10!
This is beginner level IT-TV mishap.
Wanna see something truly ridiculous? How about two
girlshackers one keyboard?There’s a great interview somewhere with the writers of one of these shows talking about how they knew this was shit and they had unofficial competitions with other shows to constantly one up each other on the stupidity.
This is entirely believable.
I used to watch that show and it was always full of this sort of master hacker bs and I loved it - for a while.
This clip has I’m pretty sure the worst audio of all time, and not quality, were talking pure decisions. That sound has got to go, that’s how you make vigilantes
I love those cyber UI mockups in TV shows.
Not a single mouse, cursor or command line in sight, but somehow they always type 84 letters per second, and get a flashy UI with animation, 3D models spinning, moving, zooming and morphing, or at the very least windows popping up and doing various stuff.
Just like in real life.
Not like the good old days.
