Hackers are people with specialized computer and information security skills. Some hackers test systems to improve security ("white hat"), while others hack illegally for personal gain ("black hat"). Companies hire white hat hackers to find security vulnerabilities. In 2014, hackers believed to be supported by North Korea attacked Sony Pictures in retaliation for a film depicting the assassination of Kim Jong-un. This caused Sony to cancel the film's release. The hack involved stealing terabytes of data and leaving threatening messages. Another hacking group called Lizard Squad claimed credit for attacks on Microsoft and Sony gaming networks around Christmas to demonstrate security weaknesses.

The dark side of social media
The document discusses both the positive and negative impacts of technology and social media on society. It begins by acknowledging that the technology we use to organize our lives can also control us. It then examines how technology has evolved from physical artifacts like wooden prosthetics and early computers to today's always-connected digital world. The document raises concerns that these technologies may be "infantilizing the brain" and reducing attention spans. However, it also notes the potential for social responsibility and new forms of intelligence with emerging technologies. The document questions whether technology should make us think or just provide convenience and stimulation.
Cyberbullying: The Dark Side of Social Media
This document discusses the issue of cyberbullying and its negative effects, especially on children and teenagers. It notes that social media has given bullies new tools to target their victims online, around the clock. Many young people are affected, with 1 in 3 teenagers experiencing cyberbullying. This can lead victims to feel constantly afraid and hide what is happening. As a result, cyberbullying forces some 160,000 students to miss school each year. While the problem is growing as more young users join social media, parents and teachers are not adequately addressing the issue. The document provides tips for dealing with cyberbullying, such as blocking bullies and telling others.
Social Media - Welcome to the Dark Side
The document discusses both positive and negative impacts of social media. It notes that social media has allowed consumers to be ahead of businesses, led to cost savings and increased revenues and margins for some companies. However, it also notes social media has been used for crime, sparked protests like the Arab Spring, and that personal data shared on social media can have unintended consequences. It concludes by stating one must overcome the dark side of social media.
Evgeny Morozov
This document discusses the dark side of social media from a critical perspective. It argues that social media's impact on political change is complex and context dependent. While social media can enhance democracy, authoritarian regimes may also adapt social media tools to increase control and surveillance. The document advocates an "ecological" view that considers social media's influence on entire political systems over time, rather than just its use during specific events. It warns that unchecked power of new internet platforms could undermine democratic debate and politics.
Shedding Light On Dark Social Media: Dave Duarte At Heavy Chef
Dark social media refers to sharing that occurs through private channels like email and messaging apps, which are difficult to track. Measures like pageviews, clicks, and followers do not accurately reflect how engaging content is or how it spreads through dark channels. The most useful metrics focus on attention and behavior rather than superficial numbers, like the time users spend engaging with content instead of click-through rates or shares. Measuring success requires understanding how social signals translate to meaningful business and social outcomes.

Trump and Hitler Compared
Godwin's Law states, "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1." Lately, no internet discussion about Donald Trump can be complete without at least one reference to Hitler. I've been asked by several people to evaluate these comparisons, so I designed these slides to accompany a recent lecture comparing Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler, noting similarities, differences, and nuances.

Sit presentation - Hacking
Hacking involves illegally accessing computer systems or networks. There are different types of hackers, including white hats who test security, black hats who hack with malicious intent, and grey hats who sometimes help for a fee. Common hacking techniques are password cracking, viruses, Trojan horses, and keyloggers. The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1984 made hacking illegal but some argue it is too broad. Famous hackers include Adrian Lamo and Jonathan James who were black hats, and Wozniak and Berners-Lee who were white hats. The Stuxnet virus targeted Iran's nuclear facilities. Anonymous is a hacking group known for hacktivism. Major hacking events include the "I Love You" virus of 2000
Hacking
Hacking involves gaining unauthorized access to computer systems or networks. It began in the 1960s at MIT and has been part of computing for 40 years. There are different types of hacking such as website hacking, network hacking, and password hacking. Hackers hack for reasons like fun, showing off skills, stealing information, or destroying enemy networks. While hacking can test security and help find vulnerabilities, it is generally illegal and can harm privacy or destroy data. Famous hacker groups include Anonymous, which opposes censorship through hacking government websites.
Ethical hacking
This document discusses ethical hacking and provides an overview of the topic. It begins with an introduction that explains ethical hacking involves discovering vulnerabilities from a hacker's perspective in order to better secure systems. The document then covers the history of hacking, different types of hacking (such as website, email, and network hacking), the definition of ethical hacking versus traditional black hat hacking, skills needed for ethical hacking, and some true incidents of past hacks. It concludes by emphasizing the importance of employing ethical hackers and providing basic security best practices.

Hackers and cyber crimes
Hackers can be classified as black hat, white hat, or grey hat based on their motives and actions. Black hat hackers illegally access systems to steal information or money, while white hat hackers, also called ethical hackers, test system vulnerabilities with permission to improve security. Grey hat hackers fall between these categories. Common hacking methods include website, network, password, email, computer, and online banking hacking. System vulnerabilities like malware, unpatched software, backdoors, privileged user accounts, and unknown bugs can be exploited by hackers to breach security. Regular software updates and limiting administrative privileges are important to reduce vulnerabilities.
