The advertisement on RUclips has summoned me over this magic channel.
We're glad you like our channel! Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss out on new videos!
Exactly. The advertisement worked
@@AltiumStories i saw your ad 6 7 months ago i clicked screen shot and after that i reset my phone i am here after a loooooong time ,again 😁
@@AltiumStories the video is great. Thanks. can u tell me which song is playing in the end?
the song starts at 11:28
The ad worked and i love it. First time i actually clicked an ad.
Same
Me too 😅😅
same
Same
Trigger point was when the judge said ....'you can take down the internet...'
yeah the ad worked
Yeah 😂
Dude it took me to chrome
I was like hold on mate easy right there
Indeed
Yup
yessir
The only RUclips Ad that most pople liked
Oh yeah..I came here by clicking on that ad😂😂
This is, my first ad click in my youtube life
Watching this after seeing his $2m recovery vid. Is so crazy. He really took it by the balls and went with it man! Truly inspiring
What happened
@That Person That's very nice of Joe. Meanwhile i found the video. Thank you nevertheless
@That Person Can’t buy much with crypto/bitcoin anyway.
@@boundariessetinstone5893 you can sell the coin on exchanges and get your respective country’s currency
Looks like Joe's found his calling, as a crypto hardware saviour.
people dont realize how big of a deal this is :D
Came here to find people that looked into him after the Trezor wallet hack 🤣
...and I'm sure it pays very well!! Go Joe! Actually, I thought the NSA would bribe him, but nope, a real American
@@jasonvessies8795 yeap the algorithm works ok
@@jasonvessies8795 yeah, I also come here after that Trezor wallet :D
This is my first time clicking the ad and I did not regret clicking it.
Finally an ad worth clicked! 😁👍🏻
This ad was more interesting than the video I clicked on. Good job!
Same 😂😅
true
Joe is one of the best humans I have ever met. Thank you for sharing your story.
These guys and L0pht were a huge influence on me when I was a kid. It's really nice to see success coming from something our parents disliked so much.
@Not Convinced Leftist how?
@Not Convinced If you want my opinion, it all stems from the ideal that information should be free to all, which is sort of a core ethic (which I agree with). That extrapolates into a lot of other things that happen to fall more into the left's political spectrum. As to why there are no right wing hacktavists... well, I am not a hacker, but I work in the software development industry and I can say I don't talk much about my conservative opinions with peers because they are not viewed as acceptable, and generally in the minority.
Why that is... Well there are a ton of socio-political reasons, but to be very brief, the culture of universities over the last 25 years or so, the demographics of people who spend a lot of time online, and the type of people that others in this line of work grew up admiring or who were very successful.
@@doc_sav I think it is because the right's political actions and policy goals, when they have them, are built on lies that take seconds for smart people to see through.
@@chesthoIe I'm confused. You said smart people see right through it, but I was talking about software developers and architects.
@@doc_sav are they smart people
This is what my parents think of me when I restart the router to fix the wifi and turn Airplane on and off to fix mobile data.
Kingpin should start a series, I'll definitely watch it
Great to see Altium showcasing people who have made such a positive impact on multiple communities! A much better use of my yearly service contract money than other stuff they do (fancy booths at embedded world etc).
You
i literally sat down the past few hours and watched a few of your videos you are an inspirational character, and an example of why curiosity made the man a legend!
My job feels so empty now. I feel like I should be doing more with my life, careerwise. Great film!
what is your job ? (just curious)
Go do something better then?
no one is stoping you but yourself
oh really? mopping the floor at jombajuice isnt fulfilling exilerating work?
instantly subscribed. have been waiting for a lifetime for someone to share Kingpin's life history
I love this guy's drive to truly dedicate his hard work & knowledge towards something meaningful. A genuine Sensai, in the hacking realm.
I read Joe's book in 2004 or so and he has been a hero of mine ever since. I don't know if he is still teaching courses, but I'd drive out to wherever he is doing that if he is!
Edit: He does still have courses at various events on his website. They look awesome.
The only ad I’ve actually been intrigued about. Clicked it and I’m here. Not disappointed
I love this and resonate with it immensely; a misfit, delinquent, who left school while I was still 14, skateboarded, broke into empty industrial buildings to skate & explore, mucked around with low level hacking. I never had the brains of someone like KingPin, though I had the exact same approach to all things in life and work and I know what he means when he says you can't teach the hacker mindset - I developed it as part of the environment I was exposed to. It's inspiring to see this; as I'm in my mid-life now and want to bring back that core, that youthful curiosity and sense of adventure, that family, kids, a mortgage has slowly eroded.
Follow your dreams my friend you've only got one shot!👍
You got to just go, make your plan, kiss your loved ones and say, I’ll be back, but not in and Arnold voice.
Great comment man , kudos’
One of the very few Ads that I loved and I loved it the most..
Hey Hacker,
I hope you'll have a brainstorm when seeing people here like me who have never clicked on an ad in their lives before and are here sharing this content with their friends. As an electronics engineer too, I can say you could put real knowledge in that media and your motivational thoughts is a common powerful thing we all have looking for. Congrats for your brilliant carreer.
Thanks and regards from Brasil!
Never clicked an ad that quick
Okay so I watched the ad and forgot about it. Then I went and searched for it two days later. Awesome content.
Wow, this is an amazing story. It deserves millions of views.
Finally a useful ad. Thanks upcoming freshman this schoolyear.
This is the first time when ad worked to me 😂
Am here to say thank you, the generosity you've shown me will be forever engraved in my heart
Thank you for going the extra mile to see us achieve our aim. I was really on my lowest, thank God he came through and he got me more than I expected, thank you sir!!
thank you Joe. Had all the tools but no inside knowledge. Takes me back to my college days.
The best ad youtube has recommended.
Imagine a movie about your most dramatic hack, where everyone is played by mark whalberg
Finally a worthwhile ad
I never thought an ad will take my interest this much.
Your ad works magnificently
Beautifully done!
I saw this ad and I was not able to click it and I am searching this for almost an hour it catches me up.
Have we gone too far too fast with something that was originally designed with the altruistic motives of sharing knowledge and communicating? I'm glad Joe is invested in having a positive impact on the world. He seems like a valuable asset.
Altruistic motives? The Internet originated as a military project
man, I was so
entertained with the ad that I didn't see it when it was over and I hadn't even seen where it was from, lucky me that it appeared again
Great video about a great man, both technically and personally.
i just wanted to say thank you for being you , seem to be a very smart spirit,a tottal gift .and I dig on your personality .your good people .
I couldn't click on the ad so I searched "hacker hacks parking machine" to get here. Worth it!
Man, this guy is truly inspiring!
So having read Cult of the Dead Cow I'd read about Joe, Mudge et al and respected Joe but then he started trail running on this vid, what a legend!
thank you for the ad, found a great channel!
Even his song is catchy 👌🏽🔥. ….Joe Grand aka King Pin . He has an inviting and engaging personality. He definitely found one of his callings now! I’m looking forward to watch what’s next on his channel.
9:20 "Modern Technology has really kind of turned me off to technology as a whole."
Damn... I felt that one.
Finally, an add I actually love
Altium yall should give a raise to whoever made this ad
The ad brought me here... Its the first time an ad made me click.. And sub. Great content.
Man! You have the life I dreamed about being a kid. Skateboard, rock band and hacking. I was into skateboarding, played in punk rock band and found hackers so cool but I didn’t have your brain capacities, being lazy also maybe. I just was the one finding warez games and crack for my friends so I could bring new games for everyone to enjoy. I wished to be surrounded by friends being hackers so I could learn from them but I was on my own.
Anyhow, not trying to find excuses for not being an hacker.
I just want to say it seems you had a great life so far, you must have had a lot of fun. Congratulations for being one a kind.
I honestly clicked on the ad mistakenly and now I'm so glad that I did
Saw the ad and had to stop what I wanted to see and just had to see this😂😂😂🔥
This is awesome Joe! Woo!!!
You did it, the ad worked. Good job
The ad worked even after a year! 👍🙌
Now THAT is something worth having an add for
man that ad is very compelling. love the content🔥🔥🔥😂👌
I never thought that i would click a RUclips ad.
best AD ever, honesty like the ad like the video
This man can tell stories to his grandchildren man :)
Very inspiring thank you Altium Stories
No matter if you see this message or not, some will see, some will read, everyone will agree: "You never lost this smile in your face. No matter which video I saw from you, no matter if you were sitting Nerd-Style in front of your Attari or now in this video or the one, you helped the person get back his Theta coins, you have this pure smile in your face."
I admire what you do for the people, because I know you do it, to keep that little boy within you alive. That is what many people forgetting in life, to keep alive the kid within us.
Thanks for being you, Joe.
Much love from Mexico.
Alexandros
This channel is underrated
What a humble mind. Cypherpunks are proud of you.
Wtf, this guy is one of the hackers that had a hearing in court in 1998
I was wondering what happened to all of em, at least we know kingpins doing good
and I watched past a minute and saw that his hearing was in the vid. lmao.
You can just look it up lol internet has everything. They were called l0pht.
Respect man for you, from my side
im coming from ads on youtube and it was the first time click an ad. thats good
Nice!!!! Always wanted to know Joe’s history he is amazing!! He is a good hacker we need him
Agreed. We need more people like Joe putting their gifts and talents to good use!
Well a ad after 6 months of release and first time ever it was awesome
I searched for the ad🔥 impressive Stories
Enjoyed this, thank you for sharing
This dudes a legend, great video. Also what’s the song at the end?

Good advertising mate, you just earned yourself a new sub :)
2021 Just a reminder, the ad is still working and I'm surprised to see lot of people in comment section who came to this video through the ad just like me.
I came here from youtube ads. I liked your video, presentation style & narration. Also subscribed.
GRANT CARDON investment is a good company where you can invest and make good profit
This is the first time that an ad has worked
This is the best of the best
i love how they always say they never did any of the bad stuff. man id love to hear some REAL stories from these kinds of guys.
Beautiful story.
at first i really hate these kind of ads but hey, its actually really fricking cool
I clicked the ad for the first time good job
You know you have an amazing video when most of the top comments are from people who decided to ditch the video they were watching to view your video because of its ad
My grandma's neighbor got robbed by one of those hacked Garage door openers. They stole the car lawnmower everything in the garage. It was the first time I even heard the word hack in this way.
With great power comes great responsibility. Hacks like this reveals the weak points of a device which then help towards making a newer more secure product. It’s unfortunate that there will always be people out there looking for ways to use things for evil purposes.
yes the ad was so intriguing
that i clicked on it
Yeah, I am here by that ad as well xD
Yes Best Ad ever 😍
The ad summoned my inner passion
Thanks budd, You are doing awsome things and I hope your dreams comes true as you said you'd figure it out. You are awsome. peace 😎🤘
I have never clicked an ad but how could I not click this one 😅
I was searching for Kingpin (Graphics card overclock) guy and found him. I'm a big fan of Jim Browning but didn't know that Kingpin is also a great mind.
you got me on the ad!
Very informative!
Got suspended from school once for hacking into the system because I was bored. Told the substitute teacher I would and did not try to hide it. Was a time before much internet. Teacher was an engineer. He wrote the security. One guy does not think of all the simple back doors. I was exploring and learning. Never tried to damage anything. We did get an advanced computers course the next year. I did once put a companies system into a processing loop that took over a day. I made a report to prove I was making the company more money than any other tech. Did not notice how slow that system was until it was to late. They thought it was someone else. I made the report for everyone to help hide who it was. I never used the report. I went on my own a few weeks later. I did have proof I was the most profitable tech the company had. I didn't want to work for liars, so why even bring it up. This may be the first time I have told this. 12 years later??
8months later, the ad is still working on new people
Yooo the closing song is fire 🔥
Seems we all came here through an ad and while we're here can I ask what course is that he is giving a lecture? Cause, yeah, now I want to go hardware, at 25 and from a software background.
