We are not your personal army
This is not the place to try to find hackers to do your dirty work and you will be banned for trying. This includes:
Asking someone to hack for you
Trying to hire hackers
Asking for help with your DoS
Asking how to get into your "girlfriend's" instagram Offering to do these things will also result in a ban

No "How do I start hacking?" posts
See r/howtohack or the stickied post. Intermediate questions are welcomed - e.g. "How does HSTS prevent SSL stripping?" is a good question. "How do I hack wifi with Kali?" is bad.

No "I got hacked" posts
No "I got hacked" posts unless it's an interesting post-mortem of a unique attack. Your nan being phished doesn't count.

No low-effort posts
Low-effort content will be removed at moderator discretion. This includes memes and jokes as they are not considered good content. Furthermore, posts without any "educational" value are removed. For example just showing a picture of a reverse shell in system x by itself will be removed, however if the author in the comments or in the post describes their method of exploitation it will be allowed. However, this rule is flexible and it be enforced according to the moderators discretion.
