It’s sad even malware has gotten corporatized and boring
modern culture incentives killing off your individual psyche and soul. but that isnt inherently corporate blame but they do piggyback off the problem. its easy to sell to consumists
You can thank the intelligence agencies of the world for that one
Capitalism truly Ruins everything xD
@@theedicatorlps6097 i dont think capitalism is inherently the issue, its piggybacking off a system of complacency

Malware used to be interesting - Now it's just your operating system.
LOL
certified windows moment
Honestly, it still exists! The RUclips phone app is a great example of an adware so prolific that it comes pre-installed on many devices. And Google Chrome is a compelling example of spyware.
windows sincerely can act like malware with the updates I have to go an absurd level to stop it even with update blocker I also need to keep bluetooth off cause surpise! it can forcibly update you via it!
@@Adric101 what? ios does the same thing.
I’ve always wanted to make a worm that is literally a worm, and I want to name it Wormagotchi. It would just place an executable file on your desktop that would be a tamagotchi but a worm. And have a button with on it that uninstalls the worm, places the Wormagotchi data in a zip in an app data file, then leaves a folder on the desktop with a .txt with the worm saying goodbye to the user in it, and a .png that’s a screenshot of your desktop but with the worm sleeping in the foreground.
If you got reinfected, the data would be retrieved, and a pop up saying something along the lines of “worm has returned from its trip!” would appear when launching the file explorer.
Honestly such a cute idea but that's the kind of thing I was wondering about it would be cool if instead of the usual stuff malware does you get a game that also sends itself to your friends to play once you've beaten it I feel like thar could be a very cool concept, like how some games change your desktop background and such as part of the experience
But it also like self deletes itself once you beat it too (after sending itself to someone else)
cool idea, if I(or someone else) learn how to program malware that interacts with the system AND other apps, then I might make something like it, but I'm not a good game Dev to make the tomagotchi
if the worm dies, so do your files
@@theJennicatso there’s only really one live copy at a time
"The file can't be removed because the file has malware." You had one job.
(yes this is a real thing, the error code is 0x800700e1)
Lol that reminded me of a time where it was either me or my cousin who ran out of disc space and tried to delete something by moving it into the recycle bin and emptying it, and the laptop brought up one of those "You need [amount of space] to copy/move the file" or something along those lines.

I've had a rat once (Remote Access Trojan) one day I came back to my computer to see my cursor moving towards my steam wallet, I moved my mouse and that probably scared them because they stopped. needless to say I had to deep clean my pc. one of the scariest moments I've ever experienced though.
You honestly should've fucked around with them
That's fucking hilarious. That's like waking up in the middle of the night to someone reaching through your window trying to grab your wallet and you smacking their wrist and them running off. Scary for sure, but goofy as hell.
I would pull up notepad and write "you wanna fucking go bro?"
When I figured out I got infected with a troyan (keylogger & console access) I opened a random login page (think it was youtube) and, in the password, field i just cussed out the guy that hijacked my pc in the hopes they'd read it before unplugged the internet cable after pressing log in. Formatted my computer afterwards
That's like a primal fear a have. Having my computer do shit on it's own out of my control scares me, but if I had a RAT Virus, i don't think i'd emotionally recover
Honestly classic malware that screws with your computer, and doesn't destroy anything is a long lost art.
People have made really cool stuff in DOS.
It's not necessarily "long lost" it's just getting yeeted by the OS immediately lol
I don’t think these viruses are cool at all. There are ways to make computer art that don’t involve intruding on peoples lives and wasting their time. Getting those viruses would be so frustrating and the malware designers think it’s funny. If this art is lost that’s a good thing

@@idontwantachannelname yeah, but guess what, you've learnt your lesson and it won't happen again, nowadays if you get malware you won't even know most of the time
I feel like malware isn't even really a thing anymore for the most part. Usually it's just ads that lead someone into a scam or some other social engineering thing to get credentials.
nowadays malware tries to stay undetected and tries to obtain as many credentials as it can
It's almost embarrassing how low effort modern malware is
@@U20E0 niko
@@CrabbChips why does it need to be high-effort if you can get results with low-effort? there's no art here and there wasn't meant to be any.
@@CrabbChips Low effort? Have you seen the effort required to stay undetected? And in the past you had to run an executable. Nowadays you have incredibly complex malware using incredibly complex methods to gain access without the user even knowingly executing something. Look at ForcedEntry. It basically implements it's own processor architecture to run code where it shouldn't and uses that for a sandbox escape.
malware is one of my biggest fears, and i’ve had a few nightmares where it happens to me
and yet i still watch these kinds of videos
Same
im scared of how much that matches up to me
(deleted my original comment, wanted to watch the video fully to check if it mentioned them) I’m mostly worried about RATs, dont research them if your afraid of malware
@@bounceysteve Virustotal and related websites are your best friend if you're a novice
Same, I accidentally destroyed my first computer when I downloaded a virus because I wanted to pirate games. I still get nightmares of it from time to time, even if it sounds insignificant and silly. Though I love watching these kinds of videos, people dissecting or playing with viruses, etc. lol

That'd make for a great movie
I want someone to make a worm that just pops up with an informative text document or video of why clicking on sketchy links or visiting sketchy websites bad and explaining how they got the worm on their system
That made me envision a worm that "infects" your computer with anti-malware software and scolds you for catching it
@@RandomPerson8492Momware
this basically happened in my school district. someone got into the district database by someone clicking a link or smth and the hacker or whatever sent everyone in the district an email that looked like it was formatted from the district office and it basically said ‘hey! anyone can send an email that looks like it’s official. don’t click random links!!’
my dad did this for his cybersecurity course, lmao -- dropped usb keys on the street that, when opened, do a fake-out scare followed by "don't plug random things into your computer. this is why." fun stuff!
That's illegal. I will only test/analyse malware on a VM.
The good thing is there's less malware targeting end users these days. Hackers have figured out there's no real money to be made in trying to ransomware Grandma's computer & demanding Bitcoin. Instead, they mostly go after bigger fish, trying to ransomware companies and other large entities.
it’s apparently a “good” thing they’re targeting government databases and threatening nations and scientific organizations like NASA now
I would say the opposite. There are millions maybe even billions of viruses that spy on you, steal your info, or just fck up your pc.
I'm pretty sure it has only increased, that background crypto mining crap is everywhere.
No but grandma’s computer is probably the most likely target of everyday users. If they’re targeting everyday people it’s people who are more likely to be gullible/forgetful/confused by technology/etc, things that are much more likely in older people. Maybe 6 years ago or so my grandma managed to get ransomware on her computer, and despite my dad’s best efforts to help, she just permanently lost a bunch of files and it was a really upsetting experience for my entire family. And then a few years later, maybe 2019 or 2020, my grandma on the other side of the family fell for some scam where she let people have remote access to her computer, and in that case it scared her so bad she literally refuses to use a computer again, and we honestly don’t know the state of that computer were it to be turned back on. Elderly people really are the target audience for scammers who are trying to go for everyday people as opposed to larger entities
Most malware is undetected, hackers figured it's less of a hassle to just run cyrpto-miners/botnets than try to ransom money from random people.
Back when malware writers were less malicious than youtube "prank" channels.
good lord you’re right and i hate it 😭
ngl, the less malicious ones could be really fun ways to fuck around before a system reset if you're already planning on that
"You've been infected with the fat ransomeware. To decrypt your files you must reach level 600 in League of Legends"

makes me sad that malware turned into lazy scams nowadays. im deathly afraid of malware, but i always found their intricate and cool ways of well, destroying your computer, to be cool. my dad owns a computer shop and i always ask him if he has any stories about viruses, but now its just stupid scams. :(
Even viruses used to be creative in so many ways, it's amazing I've lived to see the day where it used to be very unknown and "scary" but nowadays it's just pathetic and lazy. Malware used to be art, now it's just distorted and used for the giant Corporate and War Machines that drive our entire base economy... It's kinda sad to see, that an extension of ourselves and the stars, being computers (and us, plants, animals etc.) on a literal atomic-subatomic level being perverted into such dystopian means of use when we could have been exploring the very stars we're all made out of by the 80's-90's already. I feel very sorry for our species because of this but still we should praise the good and use of* technology some of us try to do to prevent a slide back into barbarism, bigotry and ignorance which is already so rife and has been for a while in our world. Hopefully the future can be better.
Malware elevated from targeting end users, they target organizations now and are far more complex and sophisticated

@@sensist2134 why are all RUclips commenters so unoriginal and cringe dude
I know a lot of people are talking about how they want the old malware back, but i'm here just that I'd rather have neither! Malware might be fun to look at, but it's never as fun when you're the victim.
Malware will always exist, so if it's gonna exist, we'd rather it at least be funny instead of boring malware that demands your money. I like the harmless funny stuff - it's just silly and might be annoying

As a member of the now dissolved hobbyist malware writer group (we parted ways, many of us have a job in the low-level software engineering field, and there's no time or really anything undiscovered left), I can't thank you enough for shining light on what malware is supposed to be. As a tribute to the community and in memory of the people we miss, me and my good friend are writing the final malware that'll be a logical end to our group's work.

"Malware (malicious software) wasn't always for malicious purposes"
Quite the statement.
it was....idk if this is a real definition, jerkware.
i mean the first computer worm wasn’t intended for malicious purposes - it was a test to see if a computer program could be self replicating
Wait, Malware's full name is malicious software? I thought it was malfunctioning software (As opoosed to intentionally screwing users up by messing with the OS.)
I feel like Rick rolls and derivatives like getting stick-bugged are sort of like modern non-destructive malware. They are fun and only waste your time but aren’t dangerous or destructive.

As a kid i used to be so scared of malware that i used to have nightmares about it...
Same thing here. I remember there was a tv-show in my country that ran every sunday. It was a science/informative-things-you-should-know kind of thing. One episode was abiut computer viruses, and they showed the "laughing skyll" virus. 5 year old me found that shit terrifying and it haunted my nightmares for months.
There’s one interesting benefit to joke malware like Memz, that’s when you use it to completely melt a tech scammer’s computer while listening to them absolutely panic. There is nothing quite more satisfying.
Finally a good video about this subject. I love that you didn't just finish at MEMZ but also showed some of the later way more impressive stuff that never got as "viral" as my shitty meme trojan.
In my opinion, coding or anything related to a computer was a really obscure niche in the 90s.
And much like the pilots in WW1, the computer enthusiasts/malware makers acted much more civil to eachother because the activity they were partaking in was so niche that every fellow nerds/pilots is a potential best pal. Plus, it takes skills to achive such feats -> they made it into a sport where sportmanship was encouraged.
Nowadays, as hacking and coding have become more mainstream than ever, combined with our society's shift to materialism, hacking has become nothing more than a fluke, sadly.
Good point!
malware is interesting and i'm glad someone's finally talking about it despite it being harmful, nice video honestly, you deserve a sub :)
I absolutely love them! You can definitely tell they inspire pixelated horror/surreal games, 4-wall breaking games or even analog horror in a way

I remember watching a live streamer open trojan on April Fools Day of all days, and the exe was titled “Google” iirc. Obviously it didn’t open up google, but what it did was constantly open and close the disc drives and fuck with the speakers, only for it to crescendo with a fucking jump scare at max volume. It was like some red demon thing? The cherry on top was that it plays twice.
Best part? I saw that at 2 am waking up my family LMAO
I do wanna learn more about Malware because that stuff really interests me, but Jesus do I fucking hate that there’s malware that have jumpscares in them. Like one of my weirdest fears as a kid turned true
good old days when you didn't know what a piece of malware was gonna do.
Bro, i just gotta say, thank you so much for actually including the music you used with links and the videos too. Idk how many times I've watched a video, recognized a tune sand then couldn't remember what it was. Or other times I've heard a song that was really good, but wasn't able to identify it with shazam or any other software. Thank you so much. I wish every RUclipsr did that.
If I were to ever make my own malware it would be less malicious and more mischievous. I would want to make something that could get a scare or laugh out of people but not leave any lasting damage. Maybe force people to play Saw inspired games to save their files or something.
It really feels like the internet started out so wholesome. Just a bunch of tech savvy people making jokes and chatting and sharing stuff. But all the well meaning stuff (video sharing, forums, even early viruses!) eventually morphed into all the awful toxicity that exists today

I don't dream that often and very rarely I have nightmares. But when I do, it's ALWAYS about my computer/phone getting a virus. The sense of uncontrollability of the technology really scares me.
Also because nowdays we have a lot of important informations in computers and phones, so the idea of losing them drives me crazy.
The funny thing is that I never dream about killers, ghosts, demons or monsters in general.
If it is a nightmare, its about technology.
My favorite malware is the “I love you” malware. So simple yet sinister. God knows most would click on it today.

this video is really high quality. loved it
I always wanted to make my own virus/trojan with the payload being a simple .txt file. The text file would be a simple message telling the user that they weren't careful, and they should be more careful.
Simple, harmless, and hopefully would educate the user on Internet safety.
Man, this video was lit! Thanks for the effort you put into this!
This video explains a lot. Back in 2016, The meme Trojan was installed on a school computer that was assigned to an Autistic Kid named Brian at the time. And instead of booting up, it would play an 8-bit version of Nyan Cat VERY LOUDLY and it scared him each time. It was a mean joke and we never found out who did it, but I was fascinated by how it just kept appearing with each boot up.
This was an amazing video! I can see you're also a danooct1 fan too! Funny how I never used Windows 9x when I was a child, but I know so much about it. That's thanks to Dan, because those viruses showcases made me passionate about PCs and shaped me to who I am now.

i was surprised that you didn't cover rogue antiviruses! those things were an odd inbetween - somewhere between the theatrics of the old era and the scammery of the new.
this video is really good!! i really like the way you made it:) subscribed right away!!
Thanks for inspiration and advice!

We need some sort of "funware" hosting service where people can upload their programs (audited of course) that don't do anything bad, instead they just look cool or do cool things.
Nice video, the algorithm seems to be supporting this, hopefully, it gets to 100k or more.
0:32 OMG ETELED PLUSH- that was like the first creepypasta that stuck w me omg it holds such a special place in my heart x3
I love how you made a video explaining how Malware isn't as fun as it used to be.
If you expand the definition of life far enough some malware could be considered alive
this is extremely interesting. i will be thinking about this forever thank you
Your videos are underrated. You deserve more subscribers!
18:43 I've seen such creativity with limited ressources only in the demo scene, specifially 64K intros
While it's not really malware one unique piece of software is Suicide Linux which will delete itself if you make a mistake in the command line.
Malware used to be fun. Malware used to not just destroy your files, it also used to do cool things like make your icons run away or pop up a funny message. Nowadays it's all "give me your money or your files are locked forever."
i didnt realize i was already subbed to you awesome
my computer crashed while watching this and it jumpscared me but it also made some cool patterns
i want to run one of these on an actual computer just to know what it's like
back in the 80's and even 90's, the term "malware" did not yet exist. viruses, trojans and worms were simply referred as just that.
also, i should point out that those terms are used to DESCRIBE the unwanted code's activity (what it does). as such, a virus can also be a worm or trojan, depending on what it does and how it acts.
Beautiful video. I love it !
17:00 not the lunatic mode😭😭😭😭
