Chapter 69: Someone trespasses
(Ask for collections, ask for recommendation votes, I hope you will give some support, thank you!) )
The incident caused GE to lose more than $5 million, and the reason was simply that one of Rodri's classmates had a problem with the GE product he bought, and he was dissatisfied with the service attitude of the customer service staff, so he carried out a retaliatory action.

Ironically, the problem was sold for a mere $300.
A very well-known computer security expert in the United States once said: "You should never deliberately provoke a hacker until he is caught, because you never know when and how he will retaliate against you." ”
The behavior of Rodri and others is a good illustration of the words of this computer security expert, for hackers - especially those who are good hackers, they are a group of very proud and conceited people, often such people can not stand the slightest grievance.
They may be very cowardly in the real world, but as soon as they enter the online world, they will become a group of lawless fanatics, their self-confidence comes from their superb computer skills, and if you offend them before you catch them, you will never be at peace.
The hacker group that Rodri and his classmates formed only existed for two years, and because of an incident, they disbanded the organization.
Until now, whenever Rodri thinks about it, he gets chilled.
It was when he was studying for his master's degree, and one night, when Rodri was bored, he habitually went to a hacker exchange website to learn about the current cutting-edge hacking technology.
The site, called Lurker, is recognized as the number one site in the hacking community, and hackers publish it whenever a new hacking technique is born.
While Rodri was browsing the information, the interface of the website suddenly went black, and the following paragraph appeared: "Fellow friends, this website will have a game of bravery, anyone who is confident in their hacking skills can participate." ”
Immediately after the text disappears, a link window appears.
Rodri was at the time of his self-confidence, he didn't even think about it, he immediately clicked on the link, and then a web page was presented, which left this message: "This brave game is divided into five levels, and those who have passed all the levels can see the final information, I promise you won't regret it after watching it." ”
Rodri couldn't help but smile: "What kind of brave game, don't you just want to show off your strength?" I don't believe how awesome this game is! ”
As soon as Rodri finished speaking, the army began to act, but he tried his best to only pass the second level, and he spent the night on the remaining three levels, and still did not make any progress.
Through Rodri's own experience, he found that these levels were all very esoteric programming topics, involving extremely advanced mathematical formulas, which were still somewhat obscure to him despite being a genius at Caltech.
Programming masters are generally math masters, because programming will use mathematical formulas, and the more advanced the program, the more advanced the mathematical formulas used.
Rodri was at a competitive age and couldn't accept defeat at all, and he angrily posted on the Lurkers website, claiming that the Valorant game was a hoax and that no one would be able to make it to the fifth level, according to his speculation.
Soon, someone replied to his question, only a simple sentence: "What you can't do, others can't do." ”
Rodri was furious at the time, and he sent a message like this: "Who are you? Why question my abilities? ”
The other party replied: "For the sake of you having passed the two levels, I will show you how to solve the next three levels." ”
The man then listed a dozen mathematical formulas and incorporated them into the program through correlation algorithms.
After Rodri read it, he found that what the other party said was true, and he humbly asked the other party's name under shame, and the other party gave this answer: "I'm very sorry, only those who have passed the five levels can know my information, and please continue to work hard, your talent is very good, as long as you study hard, I believe that your computer technology will be improved by a leap, next year today, I will still carry out the brave game, I hope you can participate again." ”
As soon as Rodri finished reading this passage, he found that the post he had sent had been deleted, and his computer interface returned to the front page of the "Lurker" website, and Rodri saw the posts made by others at a glance, and with curiosity, Rodri flipped through them.
As a result, he found that most of these posts were questioning the organizers, and unlike what happened to him, these people's posts went unanswered.
After thinking about it, Rodri thought that it might be because these people had passed too few levels that they would be ignored.
This incident attracted a lot of attention from other hackers, and there were countless hackers who went to the "Lurker" website for a while, and in the end, the vast majority of them failed.
These people were very unconvinced, and asked the organizer to give an explanation, just when everyone was in turmoil, such a paragraph suddenly appeared on the page: "You are too weak to be qualified to get my explanation, from now on, if anyone dares to make trouble again, I will find him out, and publish his relevant information on the homepage of the website." ”
These words were like droplets of water dripping into the oil pot, and many hackers immediately exploded the pot, and everyone immediately joined forces to launch an attack on the "Lurker" website.
As a result, in less than an hour, all the personal information of these people was listed in detail on the homepage of the "Lurker" website, Rodri had been watching the fire from the other side, and when he saw such an ending, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat!
You must know that there are hundreds of hackers just now! Even if their technology is not very good, but the advantage in numbers is too huge, even super hackers have to retreat when they encounter this situation!
Everyone understands the truth that ants bite and kill elephants, this is common sense, but now, this common sense has been broken.
Rodri, who witnessed the entire battle, felt that this mysterious figure was simply a mythical existence, and the other party's technology was really terrifying! Let Rodri be terrified from the bottom of his heart!
Since then, Rodri has kept a low profile, disbanding the hacker organization, honestly being a good student of his own, and at the same time studying hacking techniques diligently. Because of this, he was able to become the Tyrannosaurus rex of the hacking world.
