someone sent me this little story, http://thecolligere.com/wp-content/u...9540700438.png , it could be completely fake, but it seems somewhat realistic.

Have any of you IT/network guys ever run across something like this?

Thats horrific to say the least and I can say that stuff like that does happen quite frequently around the world and even here in the states. Ive seen many things in my relatively short life and I can say there is a deplorable underworld that thrives on such acts in order to maintain and gain power.

Believe it or not, it's a work safe screencap from the ch0nz.

Bullshit

I system built to handle 3tb+ of data ingest would not have been running windows 98. Even in 1998. Also, there is no technical jargon in the article and a real hacker/programmer would not hesitate to use it. And blah blah stupid story.

The story and how it was obtained I think is bullshit but I know the described act is a factual reality.

And for those that like clandestine secret stuff, yes, there are shitloads of darknets that will never touch the interweb. Read up on information compartmentalization. Its a "best practice" for the miltary and other criminal organizations. Woops

The act of raping a dead corpse, or the act of having 3TB of storage mounted on a system which limits volume size to 128 GB?

Working your way into hidden **** is no biggie, yet he needs several hours to set up a scanner

Even though it's pretty horrifying, I'm sure things like that happen all time. The 3TB/Windows 98 made me wonder, because I really don't know but I assume it could work and maybe it was set up like that to appear to be dormant and subtle.

The whole "darknet" thing freaks me out a little though (of course because it's so unknown/dark it's mysterious or whatever), but I know some serious organized crime goes on via the internet. I'm curious if anyone has run into it though and how far from/close to reality the above story is.

I don't know why my name seems to get dragged into the conversation up every single time somebody is forced to have sex with their daughter's mutilated corpse...

I read a bunch of tech **** and I know you're into Battle Star Galactica, computers, the Internet and other tech ****.

No you were called in because of the above mentioned by stoole-Pusha.

Generally I get called in for the sex with their daughter's mutilated corpse

Yes, I know. It was [sarcasm]sarcasm[/sarcasm].

So, serious question time: am I missing something which ought to be intuitively obvious regarding this whole darknet concept? "Dark" networks have existed pretty much since the ratification of RFC1122 (the beginning of the modern internet as we know it.) They're hosts on the internet which are "unreachable" owing to exclusion from routing tables or the use of nonstandard protocols.

I dont know much about darknets or things of that ilk. My devious behavior is just good old fashioned violence not e-terror in the deep hacker kinda way.
