Last week one of my most popular videos detailing how I hacked Unifi accounts was ‘flagged’ as inappropriate in YouTube–apparently it was in violation of their community guidelines.

The email I received from YouTube, gave no indication as to what I did wrong, and even though it states that...
Netflix is awesome. I watch it everyday, and while the selection is dated–it’s still pretty good. If you needed proof for just how good it is–32% of all internet traffic in the US, belongs to Netflix. There’s two problems though. First, it isn’t free, and cost about Rm30 month.

I remember this problem from watching an episode of numbers. You’re a contestant on a game show–and you’re given 3 doors to choose from. Behind one door is a shiny new sports car–behind the other 2 are goats. Your goal is to get the sportscar, by choosing a door. But after you choose a door the host reveals one of doors with the goats. Leaving you with you just two doors...
The truth is we all have something to hide–secrets we wished the world would never know. A political stance we once had, a video of ourselves after too many drinks, or even just a sentence we once uttered at a party somewhere. If you think you’ve got nothing to hide–you should think harder. So, when European Court of Justice recently ruled that Google had to comply with certain...
