general

So you would advise investing in airbus?

who do you think this was

was this in this server?

Yes

Probably should have had leaver post the UserID for people who join, then I could check who 456226577798135808 was

Figured it out

it was the guy who helped run the urealms live wiki

are you sure

I could have swsore that was posted by that one guy

named alec or something?

That was Alec

yeah

RIP Alec

do you think he actually did it though

No one will know

but him

why is the spaceX stream a crypto scam stream

lol

dude

that's a really really good deepfake

its an ongoing there, theres a ton

Leg, don't remove that stream

like spooky said, they deep fake musk on stage

that's actually really good

i didn't listen to the audio on that until I had linked it

it's not a SpaceX launch, but I think people are so trained that all launches are SpaceX

that today's the perfect day to do fake channel takeover scame

I thought this title made sense

152k

wow

how does this fake channel with no videos have 8.7M subs?

it's a channel takeover

how expensive are bot subs

same thing happened to Linus Tech Tips

and other huge channels

I think almost all of them are browser session hijacks of the YouTuber's computer

they get account credentials

and then go through, purge access and channels, upload fake backgrounds, rename the channel, and start a Musk-themed livestream

they work too, people are idiots

a what now

ELI5: when you log-in to a website, your browser creates a "session" so it's able to auto-login if you leave the site and come back later

bank websites don't do it, on purpose

right

so what, did the intern who runs the youtube install a fake browser extension?

idk how this happens

no, not Youtube, whoever's channel this is

probably some game Let's Player

no spooky

re-read my message

i meant youtube channel

oh mb

yeah probably, something like that

someone last year got got by a minecraft mod

that someone in their community server sent them on Discord

idk, lots of ways, they basically only need user-level access to your computer, to clone browser tokens

i've heard of people downloading random "games/mods" sent to them by hijacked friend accounts before

Ruhi Çenet's channel

he's a travel vlogger

if someone from this server suddenly sent me a random download link i would not click it

did you play Phijkchu Quest?

never even installed

oof

not that i think that game is an issue

unless it is

spooky?

idk, I've not played it either

has anyone spread malware through a steam game before

probably

other than anti-cheat

of course

crypto miner games

so, not a game

but a demo during the last Next Fest

was a confirmed crypto miner
