In Soviet Russia, Anonymous Hack You



This poor soul has caused quite the uproar on the Tube of You. Though I am embarrassed to admit that I contributed to the view count, I couldn't help but giggle maniacally as I watched this kid blast himself into oblivion. He claims he and his little "hack squad," which is really one or two other 14 year olds with little to no computer programming history to speak of, have already hacked 40+ accounts and have access to some 800 IP addresses. He also allegedly has an uncle in the FCC, who has ties to NSA, Homeland Security, FBI, INTERPOL, et al.

There's no nice way to break it to you. Your uncle probably doesn't even know who Justin Bieber is, much less even care. And it would be really quite sad if this is a top priority on INTERPOL's list. You have successfully managed to garner the bile of thousands of other internet users, particularly 4chan, in which case you are well and truly fucked. You can't shut down the First Amendment, and you will rue the day you decided to hit the "Upload" button. This is what happens when you post shit on the internet: people see it, and they will judge, they will comment and they will link the hell out of it. If you can't handle it, you shouldn't be putting yourself out there.

For future reference, if you're going to unabashedly promote a music artist, pick a good one, or at least have a valid argument on why other people should support them.

Congratulations ericDouglace et al., you have lost teh internets. And the game.
