- neoromantique 10y ago>It might just be my luck, but the first 4 I got were completely empty. It depends on luck, and there are indeed many empty ones. But I have found both full of content(Photos, Music, Films, and software sources), and even some servers where(even though I shouldn't) I could write or edit data.
- atdt 10y agoThe servers on this list allow anonymous logins, which is not the same as being unsecured.
- neoromantique 10y agoNot all of them are deliberate.
- catshirt 10y agobut not all unsecured, either. :)
- codnee 10y agoStill doesn't mean they are insecure. As long as they only allow read access.
- neoromantique 10y agoSome allow write.
- neoromantique 10y agoCurrently only accessible through google dns until it propagates further.
- joshmn 10y agoPropagates, but 504.
- neoromantique 10y agoFixed.
- minxomat 10y agoTurns out HN is a really effective DDoS (jk).
- neoromantique 10y agoBack online, had to cut off the directory listing for each one of them unfortunately, but as a bonus now it's much faster.
- minxomat 10y agoNice work. Maybe add a link to ftp:x.x.x.x to open in a new tab for further exploration.
- neoromantique 10y agoAdded.
