Hacking and Security / Re: Ways to block users from website
« on: August 29, 2015, 10:14:21 am »
If spamming comments is your problem, i can only think of afew things.
First, maybe require a login or something to comment hence you block by user and they have to go register again, blah, blah[not a good solution]
Second,  turn off comments after X number of days.
Value commenters by first comment and if abused, mark them.

Implement a captcha into the commenting system. This won't block users, although it will slow down automated spaming attacks. Then if you do what kenjoe said and also make it logon only and implement the captcha to register, they will probably not want to keep registering to do it. Not a sure shot way honestly. If someone wants to spam they are going to spam. Although, this will probably help the best IMO.


If it's a blog, like Wordpress, then Akismet is the only way to go.


I thought about something - i can make any new user to insert an authentic mail address - this could work like thatt:


The system checking the email -> the email found in the database and doesn't linked to the block list -> system approves.

The system checking the email -> the email found in the database and linked to the block list -> the system doesn't approve.

The system checking the email -> the email wasn't found -> the system sends a mail to the address with a request to approve by the user.

Hacking and Security / Ways to block users from website

Assuming i have a website where i can block users by their ip. Some of the users use TOR in order to flood the website with inappropriate content. They change the ip from time to time using softwares and proxies.


What are the best and most effective ways to block such users, or at least make them difficult time in an attempt to access the website and write comments?

I hope you are ok with big corporations having your data. Facebook sells people's info for money.
Even if i'm not - in this case, there is nothing i can do anyway

Thank you for the replies - the main concern for me, is as XiLLY said above - being doxed. The fact that facebook will still hold information about me, worries me a lot less, than the fact that someone outside the company might get it.


I'm trying to minimize the possibility of finding information about me, along with actions that will make the information discovery harder than usual. I'm quite aware to the fact that anonymity is an illusion - but if i can take actions and secure my personal data, why not?


It is clear now that I have the wisdom to use all kinds of security measures and encryption when browsing, along with the insight that i should not spread too much information about me on social networks. The problem lies in the past, when I was young and ignorant :)

Thank you for the replies - i'm talking about something like "the right to be forgotten", for exmaple:

Hello guys,


I want to delete all of my facebook activity 'till 2014, but without unfriend all of my friends - i considering doing that by sending an applying to facebook help team and ask them for it. Now, i have three questions before the sending:
1. Can they do that (deleting the activity without the unfriending action)?
2. Can i force them to do that (if so, please attach links at the replies)?
3. Stems from question 2 - can i force them to delete the information from their servers?

I'm trying to avoid the pass of each comment, like or post - it's tiring and incredibly annoying.


If you have other options, i'll be glad to hear them out.


Tnx,
prowler421 :)

Hey, thank you for the quick response - that's exactly what i told him, but he insist to report because he think that there is slight of a chance the rapist will be located. I'm searching for ideas and proofs for the impossible locating, what will show him and will prevent from him to do this mistake and report. :)

General discussion / Locating a video source - open discussion
« on: August 17, 2014, 02:17:54 am »
Hey guys,



Only to satisfy my curiosity - a friend of mine received a video in whatsapp linking (distributed video) - at the video there was a man (While his face invisible) raping a little girl.
Now, my friend want to go to the police and make a report on this clip - i know it's almost impossible - but is there any chance to locate the source of the data? considering the chances that the man is actually from my state are tiny, and the video is probably downloaded from darknet from the start. i would like to hear some opinions and optional methods along with the probability of success.
 
Regards,
Itay
