Recent Facebook Hack

On Sunday, September 16, there was an attack on Facebook’s network. It was the biggest security breach in the history of Facebook and took the company completely by surprise. And as a result, it took 11 days to stop it. Now, even after a week, the public still barely knows anything about what happened and what caused the Facebook hack.
We don’t know who the hackers were, what they were looking for and what they took. The public also does not know if they were targeting particular people in certain countries or if it was a random hack.

The hackers could have seen everything for at least 50 million users. It is possible that they could have accessed years of users’ activity history on the platform, as well as their private messages.
Things could actually get very ugly. The hackers could be trolls. And they may decide to post a database of millions of people’s private messages online.

People’s Thoughts  on the Recent Hack

When such huge hacks happen, a lot of things go through peoples minds. And we took the time to go through some of the thoughts that Facebook users had.
A few of the Networks users feared that the hackers could be blackmailers. And that maybe they are combing through the messages for high-value targets (politicians, government officials, wealthy individuals, etc.).
Others thought the attackers didn’t access all the information and they weren’t as sophisticated as feared. And maybe, they were just playing around, never realizing how potentially earth-shaking their accomplishment was. They may not have stolen anything at all or might never do anything with the information they might have stolen.

What Facebook had to say…

Facebook said that the attackers figured out how to exploit 3 separate vulnerabilities in Facebook’s code. These vulnerabilities had existed since July 2017. Soon, Facebook must give the public, lawmakers and regulators answers to some very big questions.
We don’t know if September 16 was the day the engineers noticed something was amiss or the beginning of the attack? And we also don’t know if the hackers were syphoning off data for the 11 days Facebook took to fix the problem. We also don’t know if the hackers were in the system way before Facebook ever detected something was wrong.
Social networks have fallen before, and if this hack destroys people’s trust, Facebook could quickly find itself in dire straits.

Triple H Defeats The Undertaker at WWE Super Showdown

On Saturday,  it was Triple H vs The Undertaker via pinfall at WWE Super Showdown at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Australia. The match started with a surprise announcement that it would be a no-disqualification match. Undertaker and Triple H got right into it, testing each other’s old school moves.

The Action: Triple H vs The Undertaker

Sean Michaels got involved, running the Undertaker into the ring post and helping Triple H to set up a table. Kane, who was on the Undertaker’s side, tried to stop it but was moved away by the referee. The match moved into the crowd with Triple H taking some big bumps. Sean Michaels acted as a coach throughout the whole match, whispering orders into The Game’s ears.
As the Undertaker set Triple H up on the table, Michaels tried to interfere only to be booted off by the Undertaker. The Game then used a steel chair to stop the Undertaker from diving outside of the ring. As he tried to strike again, Kane dragged him out of the ring. Michaels then hit Kane with some Sweet Chin Music which lay him on a table. Triple H then dove off the ring apron with an elbow drop which knocked Kane out.
There was a lot of back-and-forth throughout the game, with fans witnessing a lot of Chokeslams, Spinebusters, and Pedigrees. When Triple H almost won, Kane pulled the referee outside. The match was won after Undertaker was hit with Sweet Chin Music, then with a sledgehammer by Triple H. Before he could do anything, he received some Sweet Chin Music.

The Outcome

Triple H and Sean Michaels hugged and celebrated when the match ended. The Undertaker just sat, stunned and disappointed that Triple H had Michael’s help. Triple H then proceeded to the Undertaker, put their heads together and lifted him up to hug him. The 4 men then stood tall, shook hands and raised each other’s arms as fireworks went off and the crowd cheered wildly. It wasn’t long before the Undertaker and Kane turned on Triple H and Sean Michaels. They took them out with Tombstone Piledrivers and Chokeslams. The last Chokeslam drove HBK through the announce table.
