I was curious about the technique used under the hood, so I decided to have a closer look. -- What it does to intercept network trafic: 1/ The app spawns an android (java) service that, that performs the following as root when it starts: #

Developers have to come a long way to build an user base and good ratings, so it would have been fair to give a warning notice prior to removing the app, ihmo. (speaking as an Android app dev; and yes it is too intrusive)

Care to elaborate please? (FIX engine?)

Indeed, thanks. Also, about publishing eCPM/fill rate/CTR: as interesting as it is, it might be a problem regarding Admob's terms of service.

Code injection (SetWindowsHookEx, WH_CBT) and API hooking allows to filter out other programs requesting topmost display. But this is intrusive. And it can be bypassed by other vendors, whether they workaround it by using other APIs/tricks

Indeed. I am speechless because they (started?) monetize going after the 'bad guys', while they have been publishing grey/black hat stuff on Rootkit.com for many years. The trust is gone.

The most astonishing info here is that this is HBGary that is involved. Come on, we are talking about the rootkit.com guys. Not taking side is one thing, taking the opposite side is a completely different one. Pretty much everything I learn

Adding code samples (java & layouts) would be even more awesome. Very interesting, still.

Attacker sits at network / ISP level, and can therefore inject any (js, ...) payload in non-https web pages, on the fly.

> We've also developed our own Django-like templating system for Java Any chance you could list viable alternatives, please? (I'm considering GAE/Java). Thanks for this interesting thread.

I used to do that at work with a software timer. Sprints of 20 to 40. The thing is, you still need to pace yourself.

I do agree. Some people have referrer turned off, but afaik, they are the minority and this should do the trick. Google surely though about it. This also works the other way. If you rely on FB assets (images, ...), they can shut your access

The true mistake is the one you do not correct. Testing and code review should give you the opportunity to do so, among others. Also, there's always a trade off between bullet proof and time to market.

I'd love to use such a service, but for free. Ex: you get karma by giving your A/B preference, that you can then spend later in getting feedback yourself.

Would anybody know how to download them? (apart from 1x recording) I'd like to listen/view them while I'm in the subway, as they are pretty long.

I've been using CakePhp for about 3 years, on sideprojects. Planning to learn a Java/Scala based 'equivalent'.

More info on the technical side would have been far more interesting, ihmo. command control system implementation, software stack, coupling the capta with a captcha filling service... (I do not support this kind of scheme)

Insightful, thanks. Please drop us a thread/article in a few months, so we may see the sales curve.

I have no problem calling Sensei a particular great coder/architect. I even used to do it for the fun of it. But when it comes down to management asymmetric relationships, I do my best to avoid biasing it more ("master"). Could be a great w

The former case happens when the attacker challenges himself to just do it. Motivation may increase with time. This is the attacker mindset. The latter is when any host would do the trick (relay, host platform, whatever).

It's much more complicated than that. There's so much to say about your post that I'm not even going to start.

Arrogance is about the way they deliver the feedback. For some, diplomacy is hard since they can't understand why others fail to meet their technical/knowledge/... expectations. At work, I'm surrounded by smart people. They often outsmart m

I've noticed it countless times, from underground scenes' irc chans and meetups, to the office. Each case is different, that's the beauty of it. At least, they will judge you on ideas, not on appearance. (edit: only if they consider you wor
