Discussion on Invasion of Privacy and Rule breaking
Posted: Fri Oct 08, 2021 4:25 pm
Below is a quote from rapsey.
Rapsey admits to being able to see all program files while PKhonor is running. (To ensure rule-breaking isn't possible) Yet there is no way to tell if arsenic scammed someone? I feel like chat logs are not an invasion of privacy, but if everyone thinks it is, then why does raspey have a built-in mechanism to see all program files running on your computer? As a cyber-security expert, I have been exploiting this server to see how the program is set up and what the possibilities are. I have confirmed that the pkhonor system admins can access and pull (unencrypted) data out of memory while pkhononr is running. This counts for word documents, txt files etc. So if you have a text document running with your passwords for all accounts, heck even real-life bank accounts, then raspey (and who know who else) can pull that file if PKhonor is running. That seems dangerous and against personal privacy rules. (Especially since there is no local record of a 3rd party accessing your file, and since people afk 24/7, rapsey has access to your files which are loaded into memory (running) 24/7
With that being said, is there no way to tell if Roddy and arsenic knew they were scamming or breaking a player-made deal? Raspey even knew arsenic was wrong because he reversed the deal, but no punishments are handed down? Seems like rules are enforced for some and not others. OR there are no rules in place in which mods know they can exploit and "scam" people with no repercussions. Botting is bad? Access all running files on the computer? Mods scamming people is bad? "Not against the rules nor will any rule change"
Also please do not take this as "I'm salty." I have been playing on another server for about a year now and am accepted in the community and by mods and I'm having a wonderful time. (They also like my donations as well) It's got nothing to do with me. It has everything to do with this server how the owners, admins and mods operate, and how they enforce the rules. If that is what the PKhonor community wants, then great. I just have noticed distrust and hate for the server within the community and I have noticed it stems from the was the owners, admins and mods behave. (To be clear there are awesome mods, it is not everyone @Jadyen for System admin)
First off, do not try to pretend you did something fancy rapsey. You cannot exploit "security flaws." You probably are an IT help desk operator that figured out how to set up a private server. If you were good at your job and actually cared about the server, you would have released COX already. Whats taking so long? Your sysadmin skills are holding you back? Don't pretend you are some IT guru that knows how to hack. You tried to pretend this last time too and I used what's called "social engineering" to get you to post the files you were able to pull. Fun fact that wasn't even the one I was using. The one I used was automatic. I switched the code to see if you were able to access the running file or the file on the hard drive. Then you posted it informs which confirmed you were only able to access local memory. Which in the cyber-security field is still a huge no-no.
"You (a sysadmin specialized in IT security) were able to get my bot file" (ask anyone, this is the one and only time this has ever happened in PkHonor's 13+ year history)
=> Staff or admins have the ability to see any file while PkHonor is running!
Because obviously you are utterly convinced that your computer security is 100% perfect and unbeatable, so there is no way anyone could have breached it to obtain the file some other way in this one-off case... Because obviously, in this day and age, no new security flaws are ever discovered anymore...
"You could get my file"
=> Staff can always know the truth of any situation!
Oh yeah, clearly that follows.
#logic
I'm not trying to be technical. You're trying to be illogical. If you want me to take you seriously then make sure your arguments make sense.
