The Future of Hacking Sounds Pretty Ridiculous. Since the downfall of LulzSec, hackers have been busy coming up with wild ideas to outdo their many attention-grabbing stunts from 2011.
Then, we wrote about the difference between hacks that simply snatch headlines and hacks that actually affected positive change. But this year, some of the ideas for new modes of disruption are approaching downright insanity -- if not fear-mongering and national security-threatening -- and we doubt most hacking veterans would approve of the approach.

When you connect to a Web site on the Internet, your computer uses the Domain Name System (DNS) to convert URLs like "www.macfixit.com" to the IP address for the server where that Web site resides.
This system is a hierarchical network of computers throughout the world that distributes a database of domains and subdomains, allowing the system to resolve the components of the URL ("com," "macfixit," and "www") to a specific IP address out of millions of publicly available ones. This system is used for Web browsing, but also for numerous other Internet communication services including e-mail, instant messaging, syncing, and application registration technologies. Some DNS service providers like Google and OpenDNS have provided relatively secure public DNS offerings that claim to increase both the performance of name resolution and offer better security over DNS servers from Internet providers that are not as well-maintained.
