My internet provider, comcast.net has gracefully offered me the use of a new computer protection. I figured they must have a reason, so I just installed it.
In 2 hours, I have been attacked 4 times. I got curious and ran the IP numbers (admire what a 70 years old woman can do, and do not laugh.)
These attacks came from China.
I 'm flattered; here I am peacefully minding my own business and writing novels on my old computer that nobody will read. If you are curious, however, the links to my novels are HERE.
What on earth do these Chinese want? Do they expect to fall by accident on some dark military secrets or to rob a bank or what?
One thing I am pretty sure of: they do not want to spend time on my computer.
If they only knew.
By the way, there is a marvelous early novel on hacking you would enjoy if you like the subject: the technology has changed, but humans remain the same, and I loved that book: The Cuckoo's egg.
