Ip hacked! what can they do with it? How to prevent it in future?

Fact than most can't do shit after obtaining IP address is hilarious really.

If you don't already know about this way of obtaining peoples IP you're still living in stone age, and should really learn not to click any link your online buddies send you. Actually your buddy is just wannabe hacker who wanna get your IP to scare you. So please click on the link he sends you next time to not spoil their dreams of becoming next Adrian lamo. Thanks.


Proceeding..

I'm talking about all known http://whatstheirip.com/ Basically they would put email on this site and click "get link".


After that redirection to different page happens where it provided with link to get other peoples IP.



Generally these people who're trying to get IP will email the link to you saying, "This is so sad..!!!".. as if your life has been any different. Some will go as far as masking the link and make it appear like its legit site. Fucking. Bastards.



Friendship whent down the drain after couple months.. and guess what your friend has? dat IP address!!


"You pussy you scared, I can hear your heart beat" Yeah 50 cent rocks! But really what can he really do with it? Nothing. Most average Joe cant do shit except for pinging your address with 64 bits haha lol'd.


But wait apparently your friend has taken a networking course called CCNA and probably knows a shit or two.. what's the most he can do? He can go buy a "Booter" and lit your ass up, not literally. He can probably take your cute internet connection down and null a port. So you cant visit facebook no more.


What else can he do?
- He can DOX you, using your IP address to filter information.
- He can search old hacked databases for your IP address and hack for email and shit if that site had not hashed data.
- He can post on online forums to DDOS that IP.
- He can do some port scanning shit.


How do I prevent all this?
- Don't signup on BS sites.
- Don't click shit links.
- Don't talk to strangers.
- Don't install bullshit.
- Don't ever use common sense. jk. But seriously avoid using common sense at all costs. It's expensive.
