[12:26] Hey all [12:27] :-) [13:17] i am about to suggest to remove the password from his account, silly me :-D [13:17] happy valentineday ! [13:20] hey OerHeks === not_phunyguy is now known as phunyguy === rww is now known as dax [22:41] Hey, it's haplorhine. I think what's been happening is cyberstalking of some form. Somebody is tracking me for blackmailing purposes. I thought only my father's network was compromised until I was admitted and diagnosed "psychotic illness". Then bizarre things started happening in my actual life, and the next time I started my hotspot after I asking a moderator about accessing some the information sent to Canonical's servers possibly pertaining to so [22:43] My Verizon hotspot can only connect to a "Connect" page on the verizonwireless site, and it never gives a certificate when any user views it for the first time. [22:45] And it seems somebody messed with that laptop's rhythmbox in an uncanny way, but I don't know whether it was via the hotspot or though the desktop connected to my father's network. [22:46] Both hotspots and their respective devices have exhibited uncanny behavior. [22:49] I tried to call AT&T about intrusion on my father's network one year ago, but they said I needed the account holder PIN, and my father didn't seem to know where to find it. [22:53] FreedomPop customer support was no help. [22:53] Haven't called Verizon yet. [22:55] Yikes: if it's stalking, report to the police [22:58] IC3 is the police, "Federal Bureau of Investigation Internet Crime Complaint Center", but the report form guideline on the home page says I need to know who it is. [22:58] ic3.gov [22:59] Funny I never heard of IC3 in all those months of computer security research. Perhaps the Ubuntu guides should mention it somewhere. [22:59] Yikes: I really don't know if this is the place to report this [23:03] What if it IS the police??? [23:03] :P [23:04] Why would they make their presence known to me? It makes no sense. It's madness. [23:04] They must think they've got some pretty good blackmail. [23:04] They don't, [23:08] and from what I can tell they've already used it anyway. [23:17] My biggest concern is that they may be blackmailing my father as well, and I don't want to look like the perpetrator. [23:22] *stalking my father [23:25] What if I look like a co-conspirator because I didn't call the police soon enough? I warned my father vaguely! I called the ISP several times! [23:26] This is going to look really bad... [23:27] I'm the victim. I stabbed my arm because of it. [23:31] Imagine all the financial information of my father's they probably have by now. :'( I'll have to warn him - AGAIN - before I report it, so he can take precautions. [23:34] I accidentally left the SSH port open on his computer, confusing it with SSL, and the paper with the admin password has since disappeared. :'( [23:36] I KNOW it was in a folder, probably the purple one, and yet somehow it isn't. [23:39] Any advice is appreciated. Just PM haplorrhine. [23:50] OH I guess I do have op if I'm a cloaked Ubuntu member XD
