When Your "Hack" Is Just Downloading Public Files
When your "sophisticated hack" is just a Python script that downloads publicly available files... 🤦‍♂️ This tweet perfectly skewers the media's tendency to sensationalize basic web scraping as "hacking." The code shown is literally just making API requests to fetch JSON data and download image files from URLs that are intentionally public . It's like claiming you "hacked" a library because you checked out a book. Or saying you "breached security protocols" because you walked through an open door. The bar for what constitutes "hacking" has apparently dropped lower than my production server's uptime.

When Your "Hack" Is Just A GET Request
The media: "HACKERS BREACH TEA DATABASE IN SOPHISTICATED CYBERATTACK!" The actual "hack": requests.get(PUBLIC_URL) Nothing screams "senior developer energy" like seeing Python code that's just fetching publicly available JPG files being labeled a "hack." It's like calling yourself a master chef for successfully boiling water. The real security breach here is whoever decided that putting files in a publicly accessible URL with zero authentication was a good architecture decision. That person probably also uses "password123" and wonders why they keep getting "hacked."
