It's existence was known about, and never caused any problems until recently. It's here for Mitchell reel collectors, fans and users. This pattern has repeated itself, making this site the only source of much of this information. Initially, it was created because a previous site had been neglected for at least a year, had become infected with malware and its responsible hosts put it offline, to prevent harm to any visitors. This was my own time and paid for out of my own pocket. Multiple people created this content, some of whom may no longer be with us or others that are no longer interested. This site hosted an accumulated gold mine of information about Mitchell fishing reels dating back to Apor before. I am sorry that you have been affected this way and deprived of what you thought you would find here. Okay, some of you will have no idea about the above.
MITCHELL 330 OTOMATIC CRACKER
If the site has been compromised, what (of my) personal information did the cracker gain access to?.I would assume that you have several questions by now, including, but not limited to: So, if I extrapolate from that, in my opinion, if the old site had 2,000 registrations, I would estimate that only 30-50 are genuine humans. Of course, not all humans are desirable, but that is a different story! :) There are other ways an applicant can be "tested" to see if it is human.
A human does not register from an IP address that traces back to a web server, unless they are using a proxy (rare) or a VPN (more common). Any bots should be permanently blocked, to try to prevent them registering again. Only genuine human beings should be approved. It takes some skill and experience to vet any account registrations. If I allowed people to login, I would have to meet certain criteria, and perform certain duties. How many of you live in Europe? Are you familiar with the General Data Protection Regulation (GRPR)? This site has no login, and, as such, is 100% GDPR compliant. There is no good reason why any site cannot be either fixed within minutes or hours, and, if not, simply restored from the last backup. unless one throws money at a better server. These harvesters just eat up the server's resources, making it slow for genuine users. This not only exposes you to risks, this attracts harvesters. So, by inference, if you see more traffic than this, this is just bots, which have never been identified and blocked.Ī responsible webmaster will also not allow or encourage you to post any personal information. Remember, many of these people are people that just have an old reel and want to make it fishable. One could not monetize content with that little traffic! So, there is some genuine interest out there, but not that many. Statistics tell me that only 100-150 people are interested in Mitchell reels in any one day. Last, but not least, spambots are still prolific. Every day, bots or bot farms attempt to put websites offline. Every day bots scour the web for snippets of your personal information, which can be sold. Every single day, bots (robots) test websites for vulnerabilities. While the good may outweigh the bad, the bad can cause a lot of hassle. Has anyone ever heard of a website "crashing"? In my near 3 decades of experience, I have never seen or heard of this.Īs a webmaster, one must keep on top of your traffic every single day in life. This site has never been compromised and has never served any malicious content. This site is backed up daily, both locally and remotely.
