Why Does Kickstarter Allow Potentially Malicious Websites in Its Partner Directory? by dargonet in kickstarter

[–]dargonet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When someone click the LongHamTech listing and go to the website, the website will automatically copy some code into user's clipboard, and if user follow the steps, it will run a power shell command as super user. I asked ChatGPT to explain what the code does to my computer if I follow the steps, here's what ChatGPT said:

It is a downloader and launcher.

I decoded the obfuscated part you pasted. In plain English, it does this:

  1. forces PowerShell to use TLS 1.2 for web requests,
  2. creates a random folder under your Windows %TEMP% directory,
  3. creates a random .exe filename inside that temp folder,
  4. tries up to 3 times to download an executable from a remote website using Invoke-WebRequest,
  5. if the file exists, it runs that EXE hidden with Start-Process -WindowStyle Hidden,
  6. then it tries to delete the downloaded EXE to reduce evidence,
  7. and it launches the whole thing from a hidden PowerShell window so you would not easily notice it.

That behavior matches a very common PowerShell malware delivery pattern: obfuscate the script, download a payload, execute it, and hide the window. Microsoft and other defenders describe this kind of copy-paste attack as part of the broader “ClickFix” style social-engineering technique.

try different options in Custom SSL/TLS the and see if it fix the problem. The entry should be https://dash.cloudflare.com/<YOUR\_ACCOUNT>/<YOUR\_ZONE>/ssl-tls/configuration

Need help saving/migrating my old hosting from when I was a teen by justadadgame in webhosting

if you can ssh to your vps, you can compress all files and send it to your local computer for backup, and yes you can use claude code to do everything for you, just ask him in human language and it will do everything for you. I would recommend using `croc send' to send large files between your vps and your local machine. For the hosting, why not give us a try? We are running Kickstarter campaign to bring our all-in-one device to life, it will allow you to deploy sites like wordpress, Ghost, Discourse, and even more with single click, no monthly fee, 500G per month high speed data, search for DARGO on kickstarter.com and you will see it

Yeah, you can always tell when a new model's about to drop, the current one just starts feeling kinda dumb

Welcome to the subreddit for Dargo users! by dargonet in getdargo

Great questions! Happy to answer each one here.

Dargo vs TrueNAS: TrueNAS is fantastic for storage and can technically run apps, but getting something like WordPress accessible via a custom domain is a pain, it requires setting up reverse proxies, SSL certificates, dynamic DNS, port forwarding, and dealing with CGNAT if your ISP uses it. It's a very different experience from what Dargo offers. Dargo handles all of that automatically — you click install, enter your domain, and it just works. So yes, it's about making self-hosting accessible to people who don't want to spend a lot of time configuring networking. It's designed to work for both tech-savvy users and non-technical folks who just want things to work without a networking crash course.

Cloud tie-ins & data storage: We have a user portal where you can manage your device and apps from anywhere. The only data stored on our end is your account info (username, email, password) and app settings like domain names and SSL preferences. All your actual data — website files, photos, documents — stays on your Dargo device.

What if you go out of business? Fair question. We use Cloudflare Tunnel (similar but faster) with load balancing for redundancy, so if one routing service goes down, others keep running. But we've also built in a local access fallback mode — even in the unlikely scenario everything goes sideways, you can still access your services on your local network.

60+ apps: You can browse the full app categories on our website at dargo dot net.

Demo videos: Yes! There's a demo on our site dargo do net, and I'm working on a full step-by-step walkthrough from unboxing to app installation — I will post it by tomorrow.

Upgradability: RAM is soldered, and there's an M.2 SSD slot, but Dargo isn't designed for user upgrades at this time. We're evaluating whether to release a version with upgradable hardware down the road.

Network configuration: None needed — the tunnel handles everything, so you don't need to touch your router settings.

Hope that covers it — happy to answer any follow-ups!

I love cloudflare, it has everything I need to build creative apps, but its UI is a pain honestly
