I write pony words. Millions of them. Some people actually think they might be worth reading. I am very thankful for that. Also, I have a Patreon now?

This story is a sequel to I Think I Maybe Want to be a Scammer, I Promise?


It has been three months since Hard Head has joined the Equestrian government as a white hat hacker, and in that time he has found success and done real good. Unfortunately, one day he goes too far, and the pony he catches might place him in over his head...

This is the only reason Im going to spend the night reading it


Oh dear indeed. This will be interesting

How good is the Judges computer security so that an auto exec in a jpg from a third party advert on a safe page didnt install a corrupted code exploit that another vector utelised to open up at least user access so that a BCC into the Judges mail system, even when auto binned as spammed, because it had to be checked in the first place, didnt trigger an your mail has been read notification and so trigger an address book source using the Judges system as a perfectly validated source?

Now, how to set him up a Proper source system. Hypercubed Bastilled, Intelligent, CAOS. Something that can keep running through a vastly more powerful incoming DDOS.:pinkiecrazy:

As for Tempest, I take it she is currently following the Mary Poppins guidebook?

What would happen if Twilight and crew worked on Digital Haycartes?

Project Cyber TRON ? :rainbowwild:

I... have no idea what any of that means.

Believe me, you dont want to. I only know a little of the tech, publically announced attack histories, etc, and Ive seen Very scary stuff.

You dont even want to go Near reading about the Lazarus Virus and its more advanced cross breeding varients around these days. Im still unsure if the internet hasnt actually reached the self contained viral ecology tipping point yet, where cyberarchao code propagates slowly, only evolving at a low rate because it hasnt found that few extra pieces that make it fit in.

TL:DR Is the Judge the origionator, or has his system been hacked to be used as a legal source of attack.

Sorry. :twilightoops:

Oof, taking down a corrupt public figure. And a big one at that, that's never easy. Or is there more to this little scenario. We'll find out next time on, "Will Hard Head Ever Catch A Break?"

I mean, if I was going to pull something like that, I'd use someone else's identity too. Besides, someone in that kind of position has far more lucrative, and far more subtle opportunities for corruption than telephone scams. Trust me, I live a few hours south of Chicago, we in Illinois know a thing or two about corruption.

Does the honorable judge have any children? Because this is exactly the kind of idiocy I'd expect from some too-smart-for-his-own-good teenager with an oversized allowance and too much time on his hooves.

I spy, with my little eye, an identity thief who wants to die.

Kind of have to agree with the ideas of identity thief or punk teenager. Judges have way better options. The West Virginia Supreme Court went for antique furniture overspending as I understand.

9981423 I'm from New Jersey, where the draconequus of Corruption and Decay dwells. He's locally called Leeds, the Jersey Devil. It's his natural habitat.

He didn't create the corruption; he was just attracted to the sheer magnitude that exists.

Now look at this and convince me it's NOT a draconequus!

One thing they all have in common is the luminescent red-beneath yellow eyes. It's kinda a 'Dead Lights' sorta mystical otherworldly feature.

Well, this got complicated quickly. Several possibilities present themselves, and all of them merit further investigation. We'll see what happens from here.

Looks like your mother.

9982538
Admittedly I see the resemblance, Perhaps the Fausticorn almighty took inspiration from the Jersey devil and made him less symmetrical for discord's design?

9983557 Ah, but each draconequus has variations to its anatomy to better reflect its aspects.

Leeds, being corruption and decay has sickly yellow or dead-blue-black skin, depending upon which aspect he's more inclined towards at the moment, and often tattered wings.

Discord, Chaos and Disharmony, is a jumbled creature whos wings sometimes mysteriously disappear from the images, thus creating disharmony and chaos even when he's simply onscreen.

His wings also change position, sometimes on his shoulders, sometimes beneath his arms, and sometimes almost on his butt!

The draconequus of lust, Amorosus is... uhm… ok, remember that one infamous hentai anime with the demon made almost entirely out of 'dicktacles'? Yeah, like that... but worse. :fluttershbad:

9983875
Creepy uncle.

Ah but what of Princess Eris of Mlp Comic fame? Or discords sister Cosmos?

9984668 COMICS ARE NOT CANON!! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

:trollestia:

Thou hast awakened the technobronies. They shall grant thee no quarter in their correcting of your technobabble.

You have created something amazing. I enjoy it and look forward to reading every chapter.

Interesting that this went from a series of comical shorts to a more serious story.

Are we ever gonna get any more of this?
