How does one hack North Korea's version of Facebook only hours after it went live?
It's rather simple, really. A Scottish teenager managed to crack the commies social media clone (Best Korean Social Network) earlier this week with the rather ingenious combination of:
Username: Admin
Password: Password
First reported by Motherboard, it's a scene that would've looked farfetched even by the comedic standards of Seth Rogen and James Franco's 'The Interview'.
But with the international fall-out of that film, our Scottish hacker, 18-year old Andrew McKean, decided against causing online mayhem and the wrath of Kim Jung-un even though he could: "delete and suspend users, change the site’s name, censor certain words and manage the eventual ads, and see everyone’s emails."
Instead, he left a message: “Uh, I didn’t create this site just found the login."
With the Korean social network site still down, we assume the network administrators have a date with Jung-un's firing squad.
