Protect Your Privacy!

[Grimm]

Just a quick community service message from your friendly Geek.

As some may know, not too long ago the Blood & Honour webforum was hacked by assorted anti-White scumbags. The passwords, private information and private messages from that forum was then released online for all to see. I know for a fact that at least one but probably many others were fired from their jobs or had personal problems relating to this information being leaked.

It should be known by all internet users, especially Creators, that ANY website can be hacked. If the hackers wish to spend enough of their time and resources finding a way in, they will find it! This website is hosted by a reliable company and the Creativity Alliance has done all it can to protect this forum and it's other websites from being hacked. However, your privacy is your responsibility!

There are a number of tips that I will list below that will further protect your personal information from hackers if this website is compromised. It's not perfect but if something goes wrong, you'll be glad that you followed it.

1. Don't put anything on this website that you're not willing for our enemies to see.

2. Use a different password for different websites, especially your email accounts. Having 3-4 passwords may be harder to remember but it is allows for multiple lines of defence against hackers.

3. Do not use the same email you use for this website in your professional life. Often [potential] employers will Google your email to see what it comes up with!

4. Prune your Private Messages often! There is an option on the Messages page that will allow you to delete all your posts at once.

There's probably many more of these, so if anybody else can think of one, please add it to the list. We should all be aware of our online privacy and the necessary precautions to ensure our safety as much as possible.

Thanks for your time folks.

RAHOWA!

Some extra built in security means that if the worst happens and someone gets hold of our database, they will not be able to find out what your password is. Not even the Admin can do that in this forum, that and several other security benefits is why SMF was chosen over PHPbb.

Good advice ... I was on 2&8 when it went down.  I always use a different p-word and email for each forum I visit ... I mean, email addies are free and we should take advantage of this to protect our privacy.

As for content, never assume that your posts are hidden from the snooping eyes of JOG--nothing is private on the internet!
