  Why My Digital History Is Triggering Active Hacking Attempts on Anyone I Interact With (The Cost of Pirated Software) Since 2011, I had a habit of digital hoarding - collecting and testing cracked games and expensive enterprise software (AutoCAD, Autodesk, Ansys, Adobe) just to see them run. In college and later in my professional life, I freely distributed these terabytes of pirated software to friends and colleagues, completely unaware of the massive digital footprint and security liabilities I was creating. By signing into these cracked builds with my personal email, my credentials were leaked to respective servers and weaponized through data breaches, allowing bad actors to tie my email, unique username handles, phone number, and social media profiles together. The real-world consequences started falling like dominoes. In 2017, a friend’s startup was targeted with Google account hacks and an Autodesk audit after their residential IP address registered as a business entity using cracked software from me. When I joined the rocket startup AgniKul Cosmos in 2019, I distributed these software packages again. The fallout was severe: the entire team began receiving targeted, unknown messages on LinkedIn and WhatsApp phishing calls; our Wi-Fi became unusable unless restarted; and our founder's email was compromised to spam the team, forcing me to wipe and reinstall every office machine. I later found out the startup faced massive licensing fines after audit visits. Even after moving to a spacecraft design startup, the exact same disruptive patterns followed. The targeting escalated heavily during the 2020 lockdown. After noticing a suspicious Microsoft account login alert that perfectly correlated with an Argentinian "ethical hacker" visiting my Premium LinkedIn profile, I confronted him directly via InMail. That very night, a coordinated wave of login alerts hit my Reddit, PayPal, and other social media services. Because I use a consistent username across platforms like Twitter/X and LinkedIn, these actors have mapped my entire network. They’ve tracked my investor interactions, used malicious links in bio pages to harvest my home IP addresses (forcing me to rely on a VPN to restore normal speeds), and targeted my family members. Because of this relentless surveillance, I keep my current venture strictly in stealth mode and refuse to update my employer details on LinkedIn to shield my current team. This is a public apology and a massive heads-up. Recently, this targeting has shifted outward to anyone I publicly engage with. Whomever I interact with, reply to, or tag on Twitter/X is immediately seeing a surge in suspicious login alerts and hacking attempts on their own accounts. If you are interacting with me publicly, please enable robust 2FA, monitor your active login sessions, avoid clicking any random links, and stay highly vigilant. My past digital hoarding has turned into an active security vector, and I am sharing this so you can protect your data before they target you next.

  @ImBreckWorsham So true but I can one up you. I was trying to get a refund for a warranty issue on a keyboard I got my son. The only way they will send the refund is through PayPal. It’s like they are trapped in 2000 and can’t let it go.

  Not surprised PayPal Ventures is shutting down. I am, however, surprised it took this long.

  PayPal now forcing me to 'set a digital fingerprint or faceId' to use PayPal. Problem is my PC has no camera or fingerprint scanner. No possible way to decline. What new Digital nonsense is this?

  @AskPayPal Hello, I’m unable to access my PayPal account. After several sign-in attempts, PayPal asked me to change my password, but the password reset process is not working. I urgently need access to my account. Could you please help me resolve this issue as soon as possible?

  @wholemars Yes. PayPal when Elon was running it did the exact same thing. Their savings rate was way higher than you could get anywhere else. The idea is for you to put *all* your money into X and get rid of your bank altogether. If enough people do this, network effects take over and most transfers are from X to X, bypassing the ridiculously high fee credit card network, or slow ACH network. X becomes a behemoth fintech company. Fun fact: Current Wells Fargo savings accounts give you a 0.01% interest rate … vs 6% on X 🥴

  @Sudsanity Are you the official gripe admin of the FIFA WC? Do we need to apply for permission slips for getting annoyed? I have hydration break irritation issues I would like to express. Do you accept zelle or paypal?

  I should also mention because they asked for more back than what they sent, I’m still $5 negative and can’t close my account bc of that, but also am restricted so I cannot put money in my account to fix the negative balance?? What sense does this make PayPal?
