Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram got hacked

 


World's biggest social media network got hacked today. It's a date that something never happened, no one is ever experienced this much, the date 2021 October 4 evening Facebook and it's related to WhatsApp, Instagram is suddenly got down. Now Billions of users are disconnected from their connections. Billions of streams got down, trillions of posts are down. People must be desperate for not having the chance to scroll through Facebook, Instagram timelines or from not delivering messages. 

                The thing is no one ever experienced this much down of Facebook services. I think no one ever thought facebook will be hacked. It's been two hours since facebook down to writing this article. But still, all major applications aren't recovered yet. So there may be one huge attack unless those applications aren't hackable at all. What happens to Facebook? It may be a new kind of ransomware attack this tragedy may happen. 

                                No messages delivering, No post-loading, not even WhatsApp, Facebook, or Instagram able to make a connection to it's backend servers. Therefore this may be one kind of hack these kings take down. So now Facebook & its servers seem vulnerable to hackers. No one on Facebook ever expected this much down.



Will they recover user data?

Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram are the biggest platforms in the world. They have many Recover Servers to keep their user data safe. Those petabytes of data are always in separated recovery servers. You surely get your data after the Facebook crew fixes their servers. This may take some time to up & run the servers, this hack seems pretty huge. In this down period, you can sit back & relax because you are in good hands. Facebook has its own description methods that keep your data from hackers' attacks.

CS:Go Players Arrested for Throwing Matches and Illegal Betting


CS:Go Players Arrested for Throwing Matches and Illegal Betting

Six Counter-Strike: Global Offensive were arrested in Australia, following an investigation that revealed betting violations.

Ever since gaming managed to garner the status of a sport, people have been trying to figure out a way to make more money out of it. And if you involve the ability to bet on matches, things become a lot muddier.

What’s interesting is that the problem of bet fixing as been around for a long time, from times immemorial. The fact that it can now apply to modern-day gaming seems like a fascinating aspect that would have been impossible to anticipate back a couple of decades ago.

More money than we can imagine
The Internation Doto 2 Championships just ended in Shanghai, China, had prizes worth over $34 million, and first place got $15,6 million. It’s easy to see why some people might be tempted to do bad things. A lot of money can be earned from esports tournaments.

In Australia, six Counter-Strike: Global Offensive players were arrested during an investigation, according to report on Kotaku, but released shortly afterward. Of course, they talked among themselves to throws matches and places bets on those matches. A rookie mistake in any sport, let alone one that’s so closely monitored.


The red flag was raised by a betting company that noticed the odd behavior, and it looks that multiple betting companies are involved.

“Esports is really an emerging sporting industry and with that will come the demand for betting availability on the outcomes of tournaments and matches. These warrants also highlight that police will take any reports of suspicious or criminal activity within esports seriously, and we encourage anyone with information to come forward,” explained Assistant Commissioner Neil Paterson.

To make matters worse, the punishment for this type of crimes carries a sentence of up to 10 years in prison. It doesn't matter if they were playing games; illegal betting makes everyone equal.

Apple Stock Goes Down After President Trump Calls for Tech Giants to Come Home


The United States vs. China trade war is far from coming to an end, and a series of tweets published by President Donald Trump on Friday caused the shares of several American tech giants to decline massively.

Trump required US tech companies to start looking for what he describes as “an alternative to China,” as he wants a bigger part of their manufacturing to happen in local production facilities.

In his tweets, Donald Trump accuses China of stealing intellectual property and explains that American companies can avoid this in the future by moving operations to the United States.
“The vast amounts of money made and stolen by China from the United States, year after year, for decades, will and must STOP. Our great American companies are hereby ordered to immediately start looking for an alternative to China, including bringing your companies HOME and making your products in the USA.”

Apple stock going down

The tweets caused the shares of several American tech companies to decline substantially on Friday. As per CNBC, Apple shares fell 4.6%, while Qualcomm and Nvidia declined 4.7% and 5.2%, respectively.

Donald Trump claims he can “order” US companies to move the production to the United States under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), but US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin says this option won’t be “exercised presently.”

“He would have the authority to do that under IEEPA if he declared an emergency; he has not done that. I think what he was saying is he's ordering companies to start looking because he wants to make sure, to the extent that we are in an extended trade war, that companies don't have these issues and move out of China,” he was quoted as saying by Telegraph.

Everything about Google's 20th Birthday



The Birth
September 4, 1998

Remember 1998? I suppose a significant number of people reading this probably weren't even born.

But, to put things in perspective: The world had just heard the name Monica Lewinsky, and Will Smith's "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It" and Wyclef Jean's "Gone Till November" were among the top songs of the year. Saving Private Ryan and There's Something About Mary was in theaters. 

A long time ago, in other words. 

And that's why it's so impressive (to put it mildly) that Sergey Brin and Larry Page, two graduate students at Stanford who had no background in entrepreneurship, launched the company that became Google.

They incorporated on September 4, 1988, reportedly because investor Andy Bechtolsheim wrote them a $100,000 check, and they couldn't deposit it without an incorporated company.

They saw the future.  We probably didn't. So it goes.
