Joe Tech & How to Crack the Account Password on Any Operating System

Apparently, this is partially wrong? But still, the final warning is good. You should encrypt your data, because people who actually care about it know how to get in, and those that don't will just format your hard drive and sell your PC on the black market.

I'd rather stick to the old fashioned way, but... I thumbed this one up. Why ? The warnings I got while downloading the windows-version showed me my virus scanner is still active !!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HE DOESN'T EVEN PROVIDE A PROPER METHOD IN CRACKING A LINUX PASSWORD. Dumb as fuck, a lot of Linux users are smart enough to set their own root password or just straight up don't use sudo.

Someone with physical access to your machine could "hack" it? OMG OH NOES.

It resets the password, and Ubuntu doesn't even have root by default.

Misleading but makes some think about security.

Bullshit. You can out a password on Grub itself. Up yours. Screw you. Etc. In any case, as mentioned before me, you can just mount the damn filesystem with a LiveCD and copy the files. You can just rip the HDD from the machine. You can just beat the hell out of the sysadmin. Etc Etc. Point is, zero rule applies, if you have physical access to a machine, all bets are off.

Installing is Easy!
