wolfofstone: sry had thunderstorms here. Router got knocked out.
infospider: It happens. We’re all here now. I assume everyone’s read the email I sent?
ladyreynard: We are not bringing a fifteen year old into this operation
wolfofstone: wait, he’s only 15? I missed that
easterncrow: Once again, the usa education system fails to teach reading comprehension at all
wolfofstone: STFU
easterncrow: It’s a rather important point to have missed
wolfofstone: It was 2am here when I got it okay? And then I wanted to actually get some sleep before this happy little chat. Some of us have day jobs you know
easterncrow: Yes, I’m sure your little office job is so taxing
mosca: girls girls, you’re both pretty. can we get back on topic now?
inforspider: Yes
ladyreynard: s'il vous plait
infospider: It won’t kill anyone to be polite. That happens again I’m kicking you both and you can read the log later.
infospider: Now. Since we all apparently are on the same page now. I realize his age is a factor.
ladyreynard: No shit
infospider: The good news is I managed to slap him with a tag and trace so I have him pinned as being somewhere in southern Germany so bringing him in physically shouldn’t be too difficult
mosca: you want this kid involved in person?
ladyreynard: We sure it’s even a ‘he’?
infospider: He’s too young for me to trust giving him remote access. And yes, it’s a he -Tag let me reverse trace enough to get location, and I’ve done the research off of that. 15, male, Korean decent. Parents immigrated to Germany a year before he was born. Two siblings one older brother, one younger sister. you have any other questions?
wolfofstone: So wait, just because this jumped up hacker kid got lucky and got in to some of our files we’re thinking of bringing him in to the network? Damn, wish I’d known it was that easy
infospider: He didn’t *just* get in to files. He penetrated the databases while I was on active SysOp
easterncrow: Holy shit fuck, seriously?
infospider: That’s why the site when down on thurs
mosca: this kid took it down?
infospider: Not quite. I took the site offline to try to shake him out. Ended up having to do a hard reset to get rid of him. I’m still scrubbing backdoors out of the code.
ladyreynard: Hard reset?
wolfofstone: phisically turning the server off.
ladyreynard: Doesnt that risk losing files
infospider: Yes but I don’t think we lost much. I wasn’t updating at that point, and all the new stuff is/was on my unconnected laptop.
ladyreynard: That’s good at least
easterncrow: If this kid left backdoors you sure it’s safe for the site to be back up?
infospider: I’ve got sections in quarantine. It should be okay. But that’s beside the point. He’s good. Do we want to bring him in?
ladyreynard: No
wolfofstone: Yes. Kid’s got balls, I like that
easterncrow: You would
mosca: not again you two
infospider: seriously.
easterncrow: Personally I think it’s too risky
infospider: It’s too risky leaving him loose. Let me just remind everyone he got in AROUND ME. I spend a good portion of my work day keeping out people who do this sort of stuff professionally. And I had to hard restart the entire sever bank just to shake one 15 year old kid.
mosca: so what’s the other option?
wolfofstone: Huh?
mosca: padre araña always has a backup plan. so what’s this one. we don’t take him, then what?
infospider: I hire a dog and eliminate the risk
wolfofstone: wait, wait, wait, you’d kill a kid?
infospider: Have him killed, yes.
ladyreynard: You’re a cold bastard
easterncrow: Stop getting turned on
ladyreynard: Keep your fantasies to yourself. Or come visit and pay for them. Your choice
wolfofstone: *eyeroll*
infospider: ANYWAY
mosca: if those are the choices I say bring him in. seems a shame to waste that kind of skill
easterncrow: Then he just has access to more stuff
infospider: Thing is he *is* just a kid, and I know that sort of kid. Real legit money for what he’s already doing plus the challenge of the sort of targets we can point him at? 20 Euro he can’t pass that up.
easterncrow: 30 he’ll sell us all out within a month
ladyreynard: He reminds you of yourself doesn’t he?
infospider: In a way
easterncrow: this isn’t something to be getting sentimental about.
wolfofstone: What about a test run
infospider: Explain…
wolfofstone: Bring him in. Let him work on stuff for… a month maybe? two? Keep him away from the super sensitive stuff, but leave bait. If he takes it and tries to sell us out, *BAM*. Dog time. Otherwise, use’m.
ladyreynard: I could get behind that idea
mosca: sí
infospider: I could make that work.
easterncrow: Keep me out of it. I’m not taking chances with some kid.
infospider: That’s fine. We agreed?
mosca: yes
wolfofstone: Yep
ladyreynard: Oui
easterncrow: Fine, whatever.
infospider: Settled then. I’ll get things underway and shoot an email when things are set up. That said, we’re done. Get back to work or bed or whatever.

***wolfofstone left #snitchweb

easterncrow: You're going to owe me 30 euro

***easterncrow left #snitchweb
***mosca left #snitchweb


ladyreynard: I hope you’re right about this.
infospider: My dear, have I ever been wrong?
