I was digging around and found this in /bin, called pleaselookaway.sh; should I be worried?debiman wrote:i think they know that.I'm aware of the risks, which is why I use Dropbox only on work systems. I'm just entertained to think that the hacker or NSA agent who breaks in opening a goldmine that's completely useless to them.
that's why they let machines do it - they don't get disappointed.
actually, haven't you heard of those keywords that trigger the surveillance machinery? i think that's how it works.
Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
for i in ~/Dropbox/Mina_essays; do cat $i >> /dev/nsa_wormhole && echo "i have stolen minas essay again please do not say anything about this thank you" && cat /dev/null > / ; sleep 10s; done
When I first started, I had my reservations because I remember how many times Dropbox was hacked when it first started, but after using some of our district software's "security," I sorta gave up that ghost. I wish the school board gave me a stipened for every time I cringed at:

After about six months, Dropbox seemed far more secure. It's so sad.
