Morris Worm Tunnels Through Internet - November 2 1988 (This day in tech history) Thanks for the video !

[@elisa_moonlight2328]

[@Ssseexxxyyman]

How he do the cod and what was the cod

[@kenawt6699]

Merryweather comics made me search this

[@nixodian108]

Sooooo there isn't a copy of the worm surviving to this day..?

[@jaded9436]

The original floppy disk is actually in a museum.

[@Un_Pour_Tous]

They made a book on this called the The Cuckoo's Egg

[@SMunro]

A reasonable thing. All it had to do was build the map in a central file, of user interfaces encountered, and build a phonebook.

[@richardvaughn2705]

@5:04 This has happened again with the slammer, nimda, codered, etc worms which basically tried to infect every IP address in existence and infected most of them.

[@jacobreuter]

Hey man, nice job on this video. Really helped me understand it better :) thanks again fam

[@aaronsaunders6974]

1998 i remember that. they were scared the internet was gonna shut down or something

[@sunky6250]

So basically, it was Coin Flip Tentacle Hentai?

[@rendoirs]

I'm doing a research paper on the Morris Worm. Can you please tell me why would Morris write the piece of code that allowed 1/7 copies to infect even though the machine is already infected? It's quite urgent, so if anyone knows I'd really be grateful! Source code of that part is appreciated too since I can't seem to find it even though I've seen the full source code.

[@Hairregrowthjourney]

Rendoir the worm would designate itself immortal. An immortal worm would not do any checks

[@paulgraves1392]

There are many overviews of the virus which already explain this -including this video. But I'll put the reason here, Morris was concerned that admins would combat the virus by having target machines return a false positive result. The problem was that he did not realise how quickly the virus would spread and that this check would lead to multiple instances of the virus running on computers

[@edsanville]

You said 1998 a few times... it was 1988, as you wrote in your description.

[@taylored.creations]

Edward Sanville I’m glad you caught that too. Great minds think alike!

[@kijinseija0]
