MC’s hero Paul Krugman Claims hackers used his IP to download child porn


Recommended Posts

Assuming someone's IP address to download stuff is really really hard because of the way routing works.  Just giving yourself someone else's IP address and connecting it to the network will black-hole your traffic.  You need to poison the route caches of upstream routers which are designed to flush and correct their caches within seconds.  Unless someone hacked a VPN server onto his machine that they were doing address translation behind, this is highly suspicious.  Spoofing an IP address for more than 60 seconds is really tough.

Images of kiddie porn are an infinitesimally small amount of data

Maybe.  Just saying it's extremely unlikely someone assumed his IP address.  He's probably just another boomer idiot falling for a phishing email scam.

For sure...I'm not educated on the matter but even 15 seconds and a very slow upload rate would be enough for several mb worth of data. In terms of images you would be talking about 1000s

From what little I read it sounds pretty tough to hack an IP address and run that much data through it. Maybe I’ll understand more later. So either he is a perv and is trying to get ahead of this or somebody with major skills is targeting him. 
 

My early opinion is he’s innocent, made to look guilty, then the guilty try and ride his coat tails. 

They never give a good description of what actually happened in these stories. “Hacking an IP” almost never happens because of routing issues as Matt mentioned. If he’s innocent, they either hacked his pc, router or some other device on his network which then gave them the ability to download kiddie porn to his network. This would obviously show up as Krugmans home internet IP address.
