Students using school issued notebooks busted for misuse - Page 5

Lol

Now I'm gonna apply for that Uni so I can go on anything in my dorm

i got in serious trouble at school when i "misused" a computer, our school district has a central server, with each school in the district having access to it, but i thought, what if we can use the other schools partitions? so i tested this, andd accessed the other schools shared folders(shared folders are folders that any logged in student can access) no problem, no protection, no nothing, just the other school's students files, so i just started like copying stuff to my folder, and nobody noticed, but one day i saw the other schools yearbook, so i tried to copy that, but i accidentally took it into my folder, and theen they exagerated it and they said i did some crazy serious crap, andd then the day after i went to turn in work early to my math teacher(she is a whore/bitch and really stupid) and so she starts yelling at me that i hacked the server, but in reality, i just clicked the left mouse button about 7 times total.... and theen whats even funnier, is that i didnt even steal the yearbook, i just moved it to my accounts folder(on accident) which is still on the school district server, so i just moved it from one place to another within the same directory, but my math teacher spills all this crap about how if this was outside of school i wouldve gotten arrested........ and that i hacked the school serveer and crap, but all i did was click like 7 times and drag accidentally, its like a crook opens an unlocked door in an apartment building and then takes the refrigerator in there and moves it from the kitchen to the living room.......... so its pretty stupid, as is my school, nobody knows about technology at all, not even the teachers, they just hire some tech admin to do some crap for them

Very stupid teacher

So few schools, if any, practice good security on their wireless, LAN or computers. I remember at my old high school you would lose computer "privelages" if you used the built in Novell messager on the network. My friends and I found a way to mask our user names as the chair of the IT dept. He was ticked, but never found it was us or how it happened/how to stop it. We also discovered the admin passwords. The funny part about that was I later became the IT computer administrator there for my Junior and Senior years and had to choke back a laugh when they gave me the passwords and told me to keep them safe.

Later at my university I discovered the dorms' LAN connection would somehow override all security settings and allow me to access any computer on the network. I discovered it was the program you were required to install and run to use the connection. I had a few fun days checking out what music other people had on their play lists and then messing with them (all the connections were labeled with a room number) by telling them what music they listen to. I moved out of the dorms after that. And you're talking a Big 10 university here.

In other words, schools suck at administrating their own security. Even if they do, the number one security risk is the faculty. If you pretend to be able to fix a computer problem a faculty member mentions they're having, I bet almost any of them would fork voer the username/password.

This isnt a police issue...bottom line.

hehe, the local middle school has an open WIFI and and 3 apartment buildings behind it. This is NOT a good situation for them :P

bump.

Pump.
