Discussion on: I Clicked On A Facebook Scam To See What Would Happen

There isn't any confusion. As I mentioned, I said it was inclusive. Again, I also said I couldn't be sure. Based on the traffic I saw, it collected browser information along with some other tracking things. That kind of behavior can be found to be consistent with malware delivery. Also, I didn't regurgitate anything from Virus Total or SiteCheck, I only shared the links. You're taking something I did out of boredom and making it quite serious for no other reason than to be right on the internet, which is fine if that's how you feel but I'm not sure what you think is gained by arguing with me about it. Especially considering the majority of the article discusses the backend of the page and its behaviors. If you're taking issue with a few lines at the end of the page, then duly noted.

Also, I will update my article with your additions.. However, I should mention that perhaps it would be in your best interest not to approach people with hostility when trying to present an opposing view point. It immediately puts people on the defense and invalidates anything you want to share, no matter how relevant. This exchange could have gone differently. Just food for thought. Unless you just like fighting with people.. in which case, do you.
