Also: FUCK SCRIBD AND EVERYONE THAT UPLOADS STUFF THERE!
I agree, fuck scribd. I usually google "scribd free online downloader", there's a site (or maybe several sites, idc, I just use the first one) which allows you to somehow avoid the stupid paywall and registration
This website worked for me once, a bang bus credential.
Never found anything else it worked for, and the bang bus credential lasted for maybe 6 days.
Sounds like its a case of Enshittification happening to that once useful website.
enshittification happened to scribd, not bugmenot
scribd used to offer free hosting for all pdf files, then when they hit critical user mass, they decided that only paid users can download the (mostly pirated) PDF files. Literally profiting from piracy while pretending it's designed for business.
this just looks like poor moderation, enshittification very specifically refers to monetization efforts of the company destroying the platform
People when they learn a new word
This site was great for like a year. Then it got spammed to shit like every other coupon/deal site with expired or fake deals, or just garbage. It wasn’t even worth trying to find a single working code or account. I’d forgotten this site even existed I haven’t used it in such a long time.
i know that site from when i was still a teen and even then it was 99% fake creds. finding just one single working login in a whole week was like finding a treasure for me.
Guessing you're younger than me because when I was a teen, this site was AMAZING!
i'm almost 30 and was using (or trying to use..) the site when i was around 14-16 years old. dunno when the site first released thought. i stopped bothering after trying countless hours for weeks to use the site.. but people just spammed fake accounts.
Ah yeah that explains it, I've got a few years on you. Bugmenot has been around since the early 2000s
damn, I didn't expected BugMeNot being that old. Interesting.
Yeah, early 2000s was a great time for the internet. Tons of people making things and putting them on the internet for free or at the very worst, with a tiny ad from a banner ring at the bottom. Even early Facebook was awesome
when i was still in school, we always were allowed to used the computers from time to time to browse the internet. and websites had ads, hut it usually was 1-2 banners.. it didn't feel that extreme overloaded and i even looked at them. I thought they were uninteresting, but I didn't care much. this days i have a allergic reacting against all ads. going online without a adblock feels like websites slap me with a huge block of wood or stone directly into my face over and over and over.. it's crazy.
i really can't understand how this days people can still not go crazy without a adblocker.
Yeah, ads were fine until they started being invasive.
Come to think of it I think I may have heard about it from a magazine.
I kinda miss PC magazines. But then again, I kinda like not wasting paper more
Remember Demo discs though?
Hell yeah I do.
I still sometimes read them digitally from the library.
fuck scribd, just upload yer shit to researchgate like a normal person
Do you need a specific file? Send me the scribd link.
I think it just needs Captcha when adding a new entry.
And a rate limit
Sounds like the security community working together to minimize the effectiveness of a hacking community.
I see more spambots trying to monetize on desperate people. People try the link in the password field, that goes in a rabbit hole of concatenated ad.fly link "shorteners" that only show endless ads
I was thinking that. Flood the market with fakes to deter the average skript kiddie
The logic is a little problematic, because it also means you mislead ordinary users, and honestly the infosec industry has a conflict of interest as well.
I disagree in the infosec conflict of interest. Flooding might even be a product in some vendor.
...well of course it's beneficial to their product, and a detriment against everyone else, which is why I called it a conflict of interest.
Either that, or you used the wrong word. Care to elaborate?
