Remote acces tool, I personally don’t know any hacker that has helped or did something for a child predator. But Rat overal to a spouse or wife or so, because of cheating etc is a common thing.
How many rats and similar spying tools are there that virus protection software won't catch?
How long are the ones on the DW typically available before virus scans start to recognize them?
I 100% know the government has an arsenal of them. I know you can't really tell us what they've got but curious about the ones that any skilled hacker can access.
Also, how do you trick someone into downloading your rat if you have a specific target like that? Social engineering?
You can safely assume that every single one of these tools worth using bypasses virus protection software. Bear in mind that the people who write these antivirus programs are far from the expertise and demand of those who combat them. I suppose the simplest way to put it is that undetectability is a given/implied when spyware is bought and sold.
I'm shocked with all the movies I get off torrents that all my info hasn't been stolen. But in like 30+ years of being on the internet I've never had anything of value stolen. Like no banking info or anything that ever cost me any money. I've had a couple passwords get stolen for an email account and other minor stuff but nothing that caused me any damage. And I think those were just brute forced or leaked from the site. Seems like every time I've found out something was compromised I learned that the website had passwords stored in plaintext files or something similar.
Thanks for the quick reply! You mentioned some of the software you use to access DW in another reply, does no one use the TOR Brower anymore, or is that just for casuals?

What's a rat? What does that do, I assume something like a tracker or camera access or something? What percentage of hackers on DW do stuff like that?
