The national high school exam of India, CBSE, has been Pwned!

This incompetent organization continues to deny the allegations against them. And a teenager has taken over their prod servers hosting the exam booklet scans of 2M test takers. They have just taken it down.

All they had to say is "can you help us fix the problem?" but their ego is too big to admit they were wrong.

Incompetence is one thing. The complete lack of accountability to the nation while your servers get catastrophically owned is another. Internet-scale embarrassment.

We were able to get full create, read, update and delete (CRUD) access & shell access to CBSE's prod servers (as mentioned in their circular https://t.co/MFiu5xU1DF). This is disastrous. Proof archive is at https://t.co/LWWqKBOGjv.

Dear Journalists,

This is how badly you have failed the future of this country.

Bunch of teenagers are dealing 1-2-3 blows to expose CBSE HQ's incompetence and lies.

DON'T YOU DARE KILL THIS STORY OVER THE WEEKEND.

THIS NEEDS TO BE COVERED EVERY DAY UNTIL RESULTS ARE OUT.

[Internet Freedom Foundation (IFF) @internetfreedom]

When a national board exam system can be hacked this easily, the question is no longer just cybersecurity. It becomes a question of fairness, trust, and the future of millions of students.

IFF has written to the Ministry of Education and CERT-In over serious vulnerabilities in CBSE’s On-Screen Marking (OSM) portal. (1/10)

I find it so disappointing that even the most educated people see a politician being questioned by the member of the press as disrespectful and humiliating and then speak of democracy. He doesn't automatically deserve respect everywhere he goes. Just like Trump doesn't. Your actions decide whether people respect you or not. The PM's chair and office has been disrespected by the man himself on several ocassions. The office has been diminished by him internationally now that we, a country of 1.4 billion people take instructions from Trump and the man refuses to be accountable or empathetic one diaster after another. We are not a functioning democracy anymore, in case you missed that part.

When you always compare with China and North Korea on press freedom
And with Bangladesh and Pakistan on Economy
And with Kenya and Congo on per capita income

it tells you the current state of the country.

@pixeluibygoogle I'm not getting live score updates in At a glance even after following my favourite teams. Why is it so?

[Abhijeet Dipke @abhijeet_dipke]

The biggest pushback against Modi is coming from social media, led by Gen Z on Instagram. He is trying to suppress their voices through the IT rules since they cannot be controlled like prime-time anchors.

You won’t see new rules for mainstream media since they are easy to control and will obediently repeat whatever the government wants.

[Nirmalya Dutta @NonsensicalNemo]

Indeed. I have never seen an AI get angry because something was written about them in a textbook.

I wrote this last week to show why the Supreme Court is wrong and how the executive and the Bar played a role in this unconstitutional censorship. Now judges and advocates are calling my university to pressure them to make me "take it down." Read here: https://t.co/AuwinKfxoV

'Goosebumps' is one of the most overused term in film discussions these days

But when you take an all-time iconic song with a legacy of over 30 years & use it in a pivotal sequence that will change the context of the song forever...

What else do you call it?
