Technologies / / December 19, 2019
Forget about backups
It would seem that even small children already know that the backup data should be done, but then, they and the children - do not understand in life absolutely nothing. In fact, what all these precautions, when you can rely on chance. Live fast, die young, this guy does not need backups. First the accident at the hosting provider will put everything in its place, if your resource to survive, he would survive - if not, what to do, weaklings do not belong here.
Does not protect against viruses
All the threats and dangers must meet openly. Is King Leonidas hid behind his warriors, frightened by the superior forces of the Persians? I am trembling aspen leaf commander gladiator Maximus before going on stage? So why fear the virus? Why build around the site impregnable fortifications and charging specialists provider regularly inspect all of this for vulnerabilities? Only an honest duel decides whether your site is able to repulse the enemy. And if he dies, it will be a heroic death.
Quarrel with the administrator
Well, that, too, is a good option. If you show enough zeal, revenge will not take long. So, to insult him, to humiliate, to doubt the professional abilities and in general of belonging to the species Homo sapiens. Blame your administrator of all mortal sins, except that pride - this nothingness still do not have anything worthwhile to be proud of. Sooner or later tortured admin's nerves will not stand, your site will fall, never to rise again. What is it exactly that you wanted.
Do not pay rent on time hosting
Not everything in this world is measured by money, let your hosting provider to get used to the idea. And especially not heads in the timely payment of services. So what to do, forget to pay the debt and left the place where this is not possible, think of it, what trouble. Who knew that the provider is so fond of money and do not appreciate your warm feeling to it, which immediately suspend the operation of the site?
Disappear from issuing searchers
This method is suitable for those who are suddenly overtaken by an attack of misanthropy. The site itself will be fine, but users will not be able to find it. To the search engines your site excluded from extradition, it is possible to publish the stolen content, the site score the eyeballs advertising banners, and text pages to failure to fill key demands. After that you can rely on the long-awaited peace.
Crooked update the software
This is akin to magic - literally just that the site was in order, and now no longer exists. Strictly speaking, it is now nothing at all, all flew down. Update is called. To use this magic it does not need to possess the secrets of the correct software update. On the contrary, agree to everything that you only offer. Whatever happens.
Use up all of the space on the disk
Logs it, or user-generated content, but something took up too much space, so now everything is bad. To rectify the situation could prompt an appeal to the hosting provider, but it does not suit us to ask someone for help. Suffer suffer so much. Let's try to make do with what there is (spoiler: nothing good will come of it).
Asked for it to lock
Where you have to use your imagination to the full. Calls for the overthrow of the constitutional order, drug recipes for homemade, visual description of methods of suicide - try it all together and separately, something always work. Sooner or later, Roskomnadzor interested in your resource and will issue a warning. Understandably, such a little thing nobody proymosh. Double your efforts - such content will make the lock only a matter of time.
Ignore bursts of user activity

Speak, you can refer to your ISP and connect additional power? Let me remind you that we have a diametrically opposite goal.
