Forum Post: Proof of a Serious Security Breach on this Website

For those who know the history of Occupy, you'll note that Kalle Lasn registered occupywallstreet.org on June 9th 2011, and then emailed his subscribers about the idea for an anti-capitalist protest that would become Occupy.

This website, occupywallst.org, was registered at the end of June, and jart (the website's programmer) created her forum character on July 18th 2011, the first website posts then started appearing in late July 2011. You can see this in the archives.

Now, strangely, or even impossibly, one forum member, the elusive OccupyWallSt was created on May 15th, 2011 - http://occupywallst.org/users/OccupyWallSt/

This is almost one full month BEFORE Kalle Lasn had the idea of Occupy, and almost two full months before this site was made operational with a clean database!

Of course, this is an attacker playing a little joke. Showing us that he has access to the website's database, with a wink, a blink.

(You better check your neck, check your hips, there might be a micro chip con trolling your lips.)

Thrasymachus makes quite a fuss, when reading others' posts.

Conspiracies are what he sees, as posts he hates the most.

Anyone living through the Nixon years would have suspected that this website had been infiltrated and penetrated. That did NOT make it any less useful for pushing for sorely needed changes because by-and-large the really smart ones working for the powers that be have the BRAINS that THINK and reason. They will see the Truth sooner or later and bite the hands that feed them at a critical moment. The ones who are closest to the power elites can trip them up the most.

Oh! I think this site is very useful. True, ground protesters fight all day against the current government (Obama), and half the posters here spend their time providing free adverts for the current government (Obama), but in the end, like you say, truth always prevails. Logical fallacies always fall flat, they just make it longer for us to find the truth.

When you create an Admin account on a server, the creation date is passed on to alias accounts set up later on.

This OccupyWallSt account was likely set up normally by a system admin or a dba.

You're probably seeing the date the server was activated, or when the database was installed. That predates the application, predates Kalle getting the light bulb flash.

Otherwise ,ONLY THE PARANOID SURVIVE, so have fun with it.
