Summary: Thinq reported that Google+ hacker Florian Rohrweck, the source of much pre-release information about Google's social networking service, has announced that he is to join the advertising giant to work on improving the company's security.
Austrian blogger/developer Florian Rohrweck, who discovered unreleased Google+ features by exploring the source code, was hired by Google. Rohrweck's main claim to fame was a period of snooping on the code behind Google's various web apps, during which time he uncovered pre-launch evidence of things like Google+ Games, telling the world of the impending release and somewhat taking the wind of of Google's sails.
Rather than sue him into silence, however, Google has decided to put his talents to good use, hiring Rohrweck to work on improving the security of its various web-based services.
The contract isn't finalised, and Google itself is being cagey on exactly what Rohrweck will be doing at the company. "Get sued or get hired, there is no try, young Skywalker," Rohrweck joked on - appropriately enough - his Google+ page. "Wait, what? Get hired it is."
Rohrweck is expected to visit the Google headquarters in Munich next week, where the team behind Google+ will be eager to see the hacker that's been picking apart their secrets. "I remember, 'let's hire him,' was one of the first reactions when the news you had discovered all those G+ features broke out internally," claimed Google+ team member Marcelo Camelo in a comment to Rohrweck. "Welcome to the team."
Google's decision to hire - rather than scare away - Rohrweck is a good one: not only does the company get access to his not inconsiderable talents, but they get to shut him up with a nice contract at a fraction of the cost of a protracted legal battle.
Rohrweck on his Blog:
Or at least I will be have gone soon. Or something like that :D I will post new articles again. Not so much about leaks but more about the dark arts of mastering Google products and APIs. Or something else. Time will tell!
Thanks to all of you, who supported me on my way and made my work so much fun and enjoyable! You guys are awesome!
Rock on!
HOW I RECOVERED MY LOST FUNDS FROM CRYPTOCURRENCY SCAMMERS.
ReplyDeleteHello ! My name is SARAH PABLO, I am a chartered accountant and mother of four from Michigan. Some time ago I decided to invest in cryptocurrency. I invested exactly $50,000 for a start with a fake broker and was made to believe that my investment had grown from my initial deposit of $50,000 to $250,700. This felt so good as the investment grew rapidly in just a few weeks. When it was time to take my profit, my withdrawal request was denied. Later on after much vain efforts,i realized that I might never get my money back.
I discovered that i had been a victim of cryptocurrency scam.
My boss at work noticed how frustrated I was so I had to open up to him about my encounter with scammers. He linked me up with Recovery Precinct, so I looked up their website and filled the contact form. They responded Swiftly and requested for details of the fraud.
To my greatest surprise, my lost funds was recovered directly to my wallet address in less than 24hours. I don’t know how they did it but it was amazing.
Recovery Precinct is a financial regulator, private investigation and fund recovery body. They warned that these types of scams involving bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies or fake merchants are becoming common lately and targeted victims come from different parts of the world.
I am sharing this to save someone out there from a lifetime disaster.
