My home firewall catches 20-25 failed login attempts per day, all of which seem to originate in China. I'm tempted to setup a honeypot that'll show a fake bash prompt just to see what gets thrown at it. Naturally I assume there is an elite international force that will stop at nothing to break in and steal the larger original jpegs of my Facebook photos as well as all of my college homework. I'm on to you, elite international force!



They're likely more interested in obtaining hops from which to attack other machines.


Apparently, their appetite for the original, larger copies of photos uploaded to Facebook and for college homework knows no bounds!1!!


Why is this upvoted so highly? Am I missing some insight here?


Its called humour. Lolz were had. Enjoy.
