Student hacktivist at work In China, hacking is the new national sport. There are hacker conferences, hacker training schools and magazines with names like Hacker X-Files and Hacker Defence. “Guaranteed successful attack tools!” is how Black Hawk Safety Net, the country’s largest hacker-training school based in Hubei, advertised its online academy for hackers. “Spare one minute to learn and you’ll make your life more exciting.” The pitch certainly struck a chord with the country’s bored young males. According to Wuhan Evening Post, the Black Hawk site has raised more than $1 million in membership fees from 12,000 paying members since 2005. Though it only offers “training,” industry observers say the majority of its business came from selling malicious software tools for penetrating computer security systems and online accounts. But the Black Hawk site is a thing of the past.

In a crackdown on hacking activities, police in Hubei closed down the website in November and arrested three of its ringleaders. The country’s heike, or “black visitors” – the Chinese term for hacker – are unfazed, mind you. Although the Black Hawk site was an important one, members say they don’t believe the bust will make a dent in China’s hacking culture.
Hacking tools are widely available on many Chinese-language sites that are located outside of the country. Computer hacking is popular in China as a way to gain access to online game accounts, which may have points, virtual weapons or other virtual assets that may be transferred or spent. With a sizzling online gaming market (see WiC38), hacking is big business. “There is a huge underground market,” says Zhang Yumu, vice-president of Beijing Rising International Software, one of the largest domestic security firms. “The major revenue for hackers comes from breaking into online gaming accounts, and selling virtual items like weapons and clothes.” A recent report by state-broadcaster CCTV said that “Trojan horses” make up a market that is expected to be worth Rmb10 billion ($1.46 billion) this year. These programmes allows hackers to gain remote access to computers belonging to other people, so that they can tap into users’ bank account as well.
“It is not very difficult to do simple hacking tasks. Some hackers are teenagers who dropped out of school and make money by stealing accounts,” adds Zhang. Lured by easy money, more and more teenagers are dropping out of school to become hackers.

A CEO of a major Chinese technology company complained to 21CN Business Herald that even professional programmers are also giving up their day jobs to become heike. “Most of the members are really young, still students, and they are drawn by the mystique of being a hacker,” said a well-known Chinese hacker who goes by the name Lyon. “Such organisations are a hotbed for internet crimes.
And they tend to attract many fresh graduates in computer science who can’t find good jobs these days.” But some hackers say their motives are purely political. “We are the real patriotic youth. We’ll target anti-China websites across the nation and send it as a birthday gift to our country,” boasted a website called 2009.90, which, when opened, showed an image of a fluttering Chinese flag. These so-called patriotic hackers have a history of waging war against other nations. For instance, in 1999, after US planes bombed Beijing’s embassy in Belgrade, and again in 2001, when a Chinese fighter crashed after a collision with a US surveillance plane, Chinese hackers conducted cyber battles with their US counterparts.
And more recently, after the Chinese search engine Baidu was attacked by Iranian hackers, Chinese hackers retaliated, putting national flags and patriotic slogans on some Iranian government websites. But cracking down on hackers is not straightforward, as determining the origin of attacks is becoming increasingly difficult. While Google alleged that the hacking attempts it faced originated from China, for instance, experts briefed on the attacks say they were actually traced to servers in Taiwan.

Important Notice! – This DIY mod instructional guide was created and intended to give the 2007-2013 HD truck owner the option to properly clear a specific wheel & tire combination – just as a 2001-2007 Classic body would after installing a lift kit. In many cases, NorCalTruck.com will ship out suspension packages where the wheel & tire combination has already been determined and decided on. In such cases, after this has been discussed with our client, we have suggested this mod be done.
This is the reason we made this step by step DIY guide for our customers, to prepare for the proper install. I am making this IMPORTANT NOTICE due to the increase of members of the forums we support suggesting to combine a Cognito 2-3' leveling package + Nor-Cal Nick Fender mod to = Fitting Certain 35x12.50 Tire and wheel packages. This Mod is NOT endorsed by Cognito Motorsports Using a larger tire/wheel package than recommended by the manufacture may void the product warranty. NorCalTruck.com can only recommend the max tire/wheel package that Cognito will cover under warranty.
Even though many have fit much larger than recommended with this mod, we can only suggest what the manufactrue provides. Simple enough, please remember that just because you can make a certain tire and or wheel 'FIT', it doesn’t mean it’s right. You must properly combine the suspension components to the larger tire and wheel combo to avoid issues.
This DIY mod should NOT be used as a cheap fix to avoid having to purchase the components to properly set the suspension up within the correct ride height and not overwork the suspension and/or steering. We have many years of experience with these Chevy HD trucks, and see when and where the problems arise. I have personally read many emails, pm's, and have taken many calls from truck owners frustrated, chasing ride quality, and experiencing issues with excessive wear. These issues can be avoided by combining the correct products, and staying away from a tire and wheel combo too large for the suspension height.
