How is it workin' when submitting some hack?
Whoz provin' the hack?
Do u think it's a good idea to make your hackz public in this way?
It's just a matter of time until the FBI (f.e.) will catch you ;-)

@Jinx: I have know idea how it should work. I have the same concerns as you have. My first thought was, that this is just another challenge website. But I couldn't find challenges on this site, only "hack page xyz" challenges.

It looks to me like a place to go to brag about your illegal hacks. I suppose everyone likes to get credit for their accomplishments. That is understandable, but given the nature of the business this really seems dangerous to me.
On the technical side, I kinda wonder how they verify a hack. What prevents someone from simply making something up or taking credit for someone else's hack. Maybe that is explained somewhere?
I'll be reading the resources page at least: http://rankmyhack.com/tutorials.php

Well, if you can write down data, you could leave a public RSA key. But this would be very, very foolish. Would be the same as breaking in a house and leaving your signature there, wouldn't it?
No matter how they verify a hack and give somebody the credits, the police can do the same. They might not have the identity, but I would not like to risk it.

Maybe it's a conspiracy created by the police. ;-)

Ha!
If it wasn't created by the police, I bet they are collecting donations to keep the site active.Global Rank: 29991

Why leaving a public RSA key? I guess, you mean leaving digitally-signed data, which can be proven by the public key of the attacker?
