  I always think about this too (with people that decide to resort to this sort of activity..and any criminal activity in general). The difference: you have full control over your destiny, power that you don't have to spend a decade earning..you just take it, and you don't have ask for permission. There's also a thrill to it. Something you really don't get from a boring desk job..even for the likes of google and Facebook. It's very similar to those amateur pedo-busting groups on Youtube. Why not just become a detective? Because you then have to go through all kinds of red tape and answer to an asshole boss when things go wrong. Instead, you can play super hero for views and subscription numbers.

  He was making $10k / month cash for one botnet client alone. Factoring in CA taxes that's $16k+ he'd have to be paid at a regular job. He was making a lot more money than that from renting it to others and other undisclosed hacks. Besides, it's not just the money.

  >I'd like to introduce the term "neo-colonialism" to the discussion. I am curious if you are aware of the context of colonialism with respect to Liberia. Oddly, many aren't aware, but Liberia was founded as a colony by the American Colonization Society in an attempt to return freed slaves back to Africa. Although the number of US slaves that colonized Liberia was pretty limited in number (and a minority compared to the number of natives) they took power, and the Country has essentially existed in a state of civil war between the freed slaves (colonists) as minority rulers and the natives who did not view the freed US slaves as Africans.

Throwaway for obvious reasons. Around 13 years ago when I was a lot younger we were in fight with other site community, none of it was for profit. We got hit by DDOS so we wanted to retaliate. We've scanned their DDOS boxes and found out the software that was running on them and vulnerability that they were using, then we hacked that box, got their tools because all was transferred without any encryption (different times). We wrote our own C&C software and started gathering our own botnet. Most of the bots were coming from datacenters so they had high bandwidth pipe. That community we were fighting with moved to offshore hosting in Malaysia. I've used our whole botnet and started DDOSing, oh man, I didn't know what kind of power we had. Whole country (Malaysia) was cut off the rest of the world for hours. Fun times, some teenager from some place in the world can cut off whole country from internet by executing one command.

An interesting aspect is how broken the Internet is (those dodgy routers and IP webcams, what other IoT devices can be exploited?), and how critical it actually is, if you can cripple a whole country's economy.
- lopmotr 7y ago
  It's not really illustrative to call it a "whole country's economy". Liberia has the same population as LA but only one third of one percent of the GDP. So of course it's not going to be able to afford the protections that a typical country can.

What's the law on this? Is it only illegal if I cripple a company instead of my friend's website? It seems so grey
yesbabyyes 7y ago
This was a quite interesting and enlightening read! I was in Liberia at the time, from December 2016 through June 2017, doing a project for the Liberia Ministry of Health, and got acquainted with some people working for Cellcom. I also gained a great friend in one member of my team, who later worked briefly for Lonestar and is now employed by Orange. There aren't that many opportunities for a young developer in Liberia outside of NGOs (fickle) and the telecoms. Obviously I forwarded the article to him (coincidentally, Israel is his name). Liberia's history is quite interesting indeed, and I actually like to compare it with the state of Israel -- both are the result of an unholy alliance of people wanting to help, on the one hand, and get rid of, on the other, another people in "their" land: African descendants in the USA, and Jewish people in Europe. I went back to live in Liberia for three months earlier this year, to try and trace some ancestors of a family member. Things are dire, indeed, with an economy hit hard by the Ebola crisis, on top of years of military rule, civil war, corruption and abuse. Apart from being used for resources, mainly by Firestone (now Bridgestone) for rubber, but also iron (Arcelor Mittal) and gold (large parts of which is being smuggled to UAE), it remains a strategic interest for the US (their presence is still huge, with CIA's only listening post in Africa), meanwhile trade is controlled by the Indian and Lebanese communities. Also of interest is that some Cherokee opted to join the free African Americans, with one ending up a chief of the Vai tribe, and possibly inspiring the Vai script with knowledge of the Cherokee script, recently posted here on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21737230 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21737230

- atlasunshrugged 7y ago
  That's super interesting. How was your experience working with the government? I had reached out a long while back to some people formerly in the govt to ask if I could volunteer some months of my time on e-gov stuff and the main response I got was along the lines of "we need to focus on agriculture and basic needs, digital isn't relevant yet."
kpetermeni 7y ago
Yes, this is an example of https://xkcd.com/386/ https://xkcd.com/386/ so I'm creating an account on HN for the first time. > The attack against Liberia began in October 2016. More than a half-million security cameras around the world tried to connect to a handful of servers used by Lonestar Cell MTN, a local mobile phone operator, and Lonestar’s network was overwhelmed. Internet access for its 1.5 million customers slowed to a crawl, then stopped. On a more serious note,this is seriously exaggerated. Internet penetration(mostly mobile broadband) was 21% during this period and was split between LoneStarCell, Cellcom, the govt carrier - Libtelco and smaller ISPs. For a population of 4.5m people, 21% meant each mobile operator had less than 500k Internet subscribers. The post-apocalyptic description of the impact of the DDoS doesn't fit the feeling in that period ( Nov '16). Friends from outside Liberia reached out (ironically over WhatsApp) to ask whether Liberia's Internet was cut off. I checked and saw international media reporting an Internet shutdown which was even more confusing. After emailing a couple of friends at various ISPs and the regulator, I finally got confirmation that LoneStar was under attack. Apparently, they were keeping it a secret. It did not make national news for another 2 months until the formal complaint and lawsuits were filed. Mobile broadband was very patchy back then so perhaps people just assumed it was the usual state of affairs. Now, we have LTE on both operators and an upcoming pre-5G operator. Source: I'm from and have been based in Liberia (2015-present) and used to manage services at the national Internet exchange during that period.

Throwaway for obvious reasons. Around 13 years ago when I was a lot younger we were in fight with other site community, none of it was for profit. We got hit by DDOS so we wanted to retaliate. We've scanned their DDOS boxes and found out the software that was running on them and vulnerability that they were using, then we hacked that box, got their tools because all was transferred without any encryption (different times). We wrote our own C&C software and started gathering our own botnet. Most of the bots were coming from datacenters so they had high bandwidth pipe. That community we were fighting with moved to offshore hosting in Malaysia. I've used our whole botnet and started DDOSing, oh man, I didn't know what kind of power we had. Whole country (Malaysia) was cut off the rest of the world for hours. Fun times, some teenager from some place in the world can cut off whole country from internet by executing one command.

Note that this has nothing to do with the hack of the Spiderman movie documents circa 2015.

An interesting aspect is how broken the Internet is (those dodgy routers and IP webcams, what other IoT devices can be exploited?), and how critical it actually is, if you can cripple a whole country's economy.

lopmotr 7y ago
It's not really illustrative to call it a "whole country's economy". Liberia has the same population as LA but only one third of one percent of the GDP. So of course it's not going to be able to afford the protections that a typical country can.

What's the law on this? Is it only illegal if I cripple a company instead of my friend's website? It seems so grey

yesbabyyes 7y ago

This was a quite interesting and enlightening read! I was in Liberia at the time, from December 2016 through June 2017, doing a project for the Liberia Ministry of Health, and got acquainted with some people working for Cellcom. I also gained a great friend in one member of my team, who later worked briefly for Lonestar and is now employed by Orange. There aren't that many opportunities for a young developer in Liberia outside of NGOs (fickle) and the telecoms. Obviously I forwarded the article to him (coincidentally, Israel is his name). Liberia's history is quite interesting indeed, and I actually like to compare it with the state of Israel -- both are the result of an unholy alliance of people wanting to help, on the one hand, and get rid of, on the other, another people in "their" land: African descendants in the USA, and Jewish people in Europe. I went back to live in Liberia for three months earlier this year, to try and trace some ancestors of a family member. Things are dire, indeed, with an economy hit hard by the Ebola crisis, on top of years of military rule, civil war, corruption and abuse. Apart from being used for resources, mainly by Firestone (now Bridgestone) for rubber, but also iron (Arcelor Mittal) and gold (large parts of which is being smuggled to UAE), it remains a strategic interest for the US (their presence is still huge, with CIA's only listening post in Africa), meanwhile trade is controlled by the Indian and Lebanese communities. Also of interest is that some Cherokee opted to join the free African Americans, with one ending up a chief of the Vai tribe, and possibly inspiring the Vai script with knowledge of the Cherokee script, recently posted here on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21737230 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21737230

  Point taken.
atlasunshrugged 7y ago
That's super interesting. How was your experience working with the government? I had reached out a long while back to some people formerly in the govt to ask if I could volunteer some months of my time on e-gov stuff and the main response I got was along the lines of "we need to focus on agriculture and basic needs, digital isn't relevant yet."

Yes, this is an example of https://xkcd.com/386/ https://xkcd.com/386/ so I'm creating an account on HN for the first time. > The attack against Liberia began in October 2016. More than a half-million security cameras around the world tried to connect to a handful of servers used by Lonestar Cell MTN, a local mobile phone operator, and Lonestar’s network was overwhelmed. Internet access for its 1.5 million customers slowed to a crawl, then stopped. On a more serious note,this is seriously exaggerated. Internet penetration(mostly mobile broadband) was 21% during this period and was split between LoneStarCell, Cellcom, the govt carrier - Libtelco and smaller ISPs. For a population of 4.5m people, 21% meant each mobile operator had less than 500k Internet subscribers. The post-apocalyptic description of the impact of the DDoS doesn't fit the feeling in that period ( Nov '16). Friends from outside Liberia reached out (ironically over WhatsApp) to ask whether Liberia's Internet was cut off. I checked and saw international media reporting an Internet shutdown which was even more confusing. After emailing a couple of friends at various ISPs and the regulator, I finally got confirmation that LoneStar was under attack. Apparently, they were keeping it a secret. It did not make national news for another 2 months until the formal complaint and lawsuits were filed. Mobile broadband was very patchy back then so perhaps people just assumed it was the usual state of affairs. Now, we have LTE on both operators and an upcoming pre-5G operator. Source: I'm from and have been based in Liberia (2015-present) and used to manage services at the national Internet exchange during that period.
