I'm curious about what interesting or important content have you searched on the internet for but just can't seem to find anymore? This could be an old video, a long-lost website, or even a piece of vital information that's disappeared. I'm eager to hear about the digital treasures you and we've lost! (can be a video, a website, a resources, or some important information).
Thank you for your time.
It was a story of Superman and a villain where the roles were inverted, Superman was the bad guy. It was alternating one chapter with a fiction story and a chapter as technical manual about various hacking topic like basic cryptography, steganography, etc.
The protagonist was using various techniques to escape from Superman and the technical chapters were like tutorials.
I can’t say that it was the beginning of my interest in security, but it was certainly a great inspiration. I also sort of started writing a book around the same idea of alternating fiction and technical chapters, will see if I ever finish it :)
It was streamed on Twitch via the official HackerOne channel and I kick myself for not realizing it would be autodeleted after a few days.
In it he talks about his methodology and it has one of my favorite clips from these types of interviews where (paraphrasing) he is asked what he is doing during a general, hypothetical bug discovery. He goes on to explain that he has automated the entire process such that he finds bugs in his sleep and it still excites me to think about.
It has info about drugs (250mb of PDFs about Ketamine alone), bomb manufacturing, electronics, e-mags, etc... for educational purposes of course.
It's probably a mirror from about 2006 (of at least part of the site)
If I recall, it was either a demo or the introduction to the authors website.
It had a frame-based layout and the cool 90s animated gifs.
I think it's totally lost, even though a lot of those pages got archived. I have copies of pretty much everything else I ever built.
