The woman upstairs stomps on the floor and they both walk up on me from upstairs when they hear a noise and follow me around my apartment. VPN and Tor are no help, they're already in them. Got rid of WiFi because they're in my TV's, too. Any suggestions?

    Funny, it's a good time to bring up how DMCA requests actually work: you don't typically receive them, KZread will give you a notice they have received it but they won't provide you, the creator, with a copy. That may be slightly different now, but generally you won't receive some lawyer-speak notice about violating copyright unless you are a company, own your own business where you are the CEO. In that case, you should have your own lawyer(s) anyway. So, don't open anything in any emails ever, don't trust DMCA notices because you wouldn't personally receive them anyway, and definitely question all links and attachments. If you get an attachment from a coworker, notify them and ask if they sent it, even if it's a legitimate email address and came from them. Remember, emails can be spoofed very well, just as phone numbers.

This (as well as most of your videos if not all), are always practical and showcase actual steps. Steps that a "poor man's" way of doing things is most likely a more advance way of doing some actual poking for those of us who value cyber security and ethical hacking but haven't made it a career. For all of the tinkerers out there, and even for just study purposes this is an excellent! We don't need to see the Mr. Robot type hacking all the time...though we love it...- Don't get me wrong I absolutely love the movie, i've done my review / some of thee tactic used are legit. But anyway, this video was an absolute treat for us and all the more very educational indeed. Definitely appreciate as always brother, stay blessed and safe out there.

    Definitely not boring content! I personally just want to be more aware of how these things work and this achieved that for me. Plus, it's kind of nice seeing one of these scams put on display given that they thrive on information asymmetry.

    Hey John, thanks for sharing this... definitely not boring and also not too lengthy! I suspect that the file was inflated to pass through web filters. Most firewalls with webfilter have a resource limit up to which size they scan downloads which is typically some 100 MB. So thats the easy or poor man way to bypass these. By the way, Hetzner is a large German hoster, which also has a datacenter in Finland. They rent everything from simple webspace to dedicated root servers or even colocation space. You can write them an mail, they have a good team!

    Super educational! I get tons of phishing emails from Iceland and I've always wanted to know how to safely dive deeper to track down homebase. Of course I assume any risks involved.
