Google and Adobe Hacked

Did any1 else hear about this? It happened a while ago, i cant believe they stole the source codes from multiple companies over a period of a couple months. These guys are beast hackers. Its crazy that they used an unknown hole in IE and seamlessly infiltrated their network and raped them from the inside.

The really crazy part was they were in their system for months! and google didnt know till they shut down the connection and had already left.

 

o.o;

You should get a topic about this from any forums, I'm curious. Although, I did hear about it xD

 

LINK! I want to know moar!

THE MOAR YOU KNOW!

 

Who would dare do such a thing to my benevolent entity. >:

 

Someone in China apparently.

 

Ahaha, adobe got face rocked.

 

lol google is ok, but adobe the most salable product in the world? haha :d

 

This is an article i just read:

One of the cooler stories about out the whole Google-China debalce is that Google hacked the hackers. It "began a secret counteroffensive," breaking into a computer in Taiwan, gathering evidence the attacks originated from mainland China, possibly orchestrated by the government.
Google's delta force found evidence that the hackers had attacked 33 other companies, like Adobe, and that the onslaught actually came from China, not Taiwan. More to the point, "much of the evidence, including the sophistication of the attacks, strongly suggested an operation run by Chinese government agencies, or at least approved by them." Unfortunately, Google can't prove the Chinese government's involvement 100 percent, which is why the Obama administration is pussy-footing around the issue.
Still, it's pretty awesome: If you hack Google, they will hack your ass right back.



So all in all, although google got raped along with 33 other companies, they have earned their street cred for tracking them down and beating them with a bag 'o taters(hurts like hell and gets the point across without leaving a mark!)

 

Yeah, but google "hacked" them back

 

eye for an eye, tooth for tooth *upgrades my firewall* haha

 

omfg thanks god google is ok, wonder how would the world be without it??? O_O MANY KIDS WON'T DO THEIR HOMEWORK XD I could be one of them haha

 

Well according to Mcafee there was no antivirus program that had the data to block the exploits and malware they used. sooo basically they combined a bunch of original ideas and hacks and raped at will :ninja:

 

err, u know half my school goes directly to wikipedia, skipping over google >.>

 

This happened in Jan 2010 apparently? lol...

 

Lol, i didnt read about it till yesterday and figured others didnt know about this either.
