== Rootkit day ==

On June 14, 2024, the Party experienced Rootkit Day, in which [[Nudev]] was allegedly (?) discovered to be connecting to soyteen's local networks, for alleged bitcoin mining purposes (although some suspect it's to insert rootkits and remote access trojans into users' machines). uBlock Origin users were forced to disable the "Block Outsider Intrusion into LAN" feature. Many tears were shed, many clitties were leaked. << [[Nusoi|codeGOD]] here, it was prob for fingerprinting of the LAN, not for fuggen installing rootkitterinos, although if you have really outdated shit on your LAN, it could be used as so, but it would mainly be for adding [[CIA|IoT]] devices to [[Hacker.party|botnets]] and such

This also practically resulted in a de facto banning of Firefox and Brave Browser, since they both have uBlock Origin pre-installed.

Later on, uBlock Origin users started getting the same error you get when you're posting on Tor. It is thought that, since only one error can be displayed when your post fails, this error message took priority over the  "Please disable Block Outsider Intrusion into Lan" message, although in reality both errors were present. It is suspected that NuDev might have inserted the IPs of his enemies into the site's database of Tor or VPN IPs, thereby sneakily banning them permanently, although this was later fixed.

''Wtf, I'm not able to post on the Party now. I disabled Block Outsider Intrusion into LAN, reset cookies, and it still didn't work. Then I disabled uBlock Origin, reset cookies, and it doesn't work. Im not banned. Jannies work on it.''
