So…I stumbled across this while googling “crack streams” (which anyone who’s a poor prole knows – is a reputable place to watch sports for free.) So I google – and this PDF URL pops up. I click on the LIVE image in the PDF and it takes me to antsports.tv. lol. Some government individual in a town between Austin and Dallas decided this would be a good idea to post on a GOVERNMENT server lol. I won’t tattle, but – funny no? Thoughts?

    That’s because they were hacked or exploited for an uncontrolled ability to upload searchable documents that get indexed. Very common with universities and gov sites. A real plague honestly.

    And there’s a non-zero chance they tried hacking you by directing you to a malware payload.

    I would never follow links found in a pdf. Heck I would never open a suspicious pdf like that given it could be the payload.

    Use dbzero’s piracy wiki megathread of links to find reasonably safe sources for this stuff not random links.

      I didn’t follow the links. I just found it funny. I use SoulSeek for downloading. I just occasionally watch live sports on Crack Streams or Meth Streams. Me being hacked? They won’t get much. lol.
