Might as well post a more direct link: http://samy.pl/opensesame/


The "source code" of http://samy.pl is quite interesting

    /*
    No source for you!
    *//
    /.source.replace(/.{7}/g,function(w){document.write(String.fromCharCode(parseInt(w.replace(/ /g,'0').replace(/	/g,'1'),2)))});


There is a huge amount of whitespace is the page source. A mix of tabs and spaces. The page is encoded in that. Have a look in the inspector to see the decoded result. It's a bit like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitespace_%28programming_lang...


Ah, looks like they have a regex that is just whitespace, get the source of it, and do some replacements to turn it into code. 7 bit binary, with spaces = 0 and tabs = 1


Nazi...


This is a reference to 'The Soup Nazi' ( Seinfeld )

No soup for you!


Thanks Dude.


His name is Lebowski!


Say what you will about the tenets of National Soup-cialism, at least it's an ethos.



Strangely the old link works fine for me, but the new one is blocked by my workplace's McAfee filter/firewall.


Not really surprised... Samy's website is full of borderline-blackhat material. One might even say that it's his specialty.
