Popular Dark Web Hosting Provider Got Hacked, 6,500 Sites Down (zdnet.com)

Daniel's Hosting, one of the largest providers of Dark Web hosting services, was hacked this week and taken offline, ZDNet reports. From a report: The hack took place on Thursday, November 15, according to Daniel Winzen, the software developer behind the hosting service. "As per my analysis it seems someone got access to the database and deleted all accounts," he said in a message posted on the DH portal today. Winzen said the server's root account was also deleted, and that all 6,500+ Dark Web services hosted on the platform are now gone. "Unfortunately, all data is lost and per design, there are no backups," Winzen told ZDNet in an email today. "I will bring my hosting back up once the vulnerability has been identified and fixed."

Groping genitals, forced sex? by burni2 · 2018-11-19 11:02 · Score: 1, Flamebait

I'm sure people would love to vote for a candidate, boasting about groping womens genitals and doing such a bad job as being recorded with that statement?
And actually they did, what will this now tell about if these people would live to see children or women being raped in the open?
