Yes that was another time for me..
We still have a sever but mainly used to park some MX domains and our
internal use only.

#1. your in arkansas No one within a 200mile radius even knows how to
hack a BASIC secured wifi connection much less be able to decipher the
encryption used between payment gateway and the credit card machine.
#2. you were probably surfing porn and got a nasty Trojan with std on
it which exploited your card when you wanted to see more of the peep
show. LOL

This type of fluff article irritates me. That abuse of the
term hacking/hacker is comparable to the abuse of the term
engineer.
"my facebook got hacked!!" no it didnt, you left your device
signed in or you followed a phishing link, you werent hacked,
your ignorance was exploited with zero knowledge that you even
exist
"a hacker encrypted my data" no, in all likelyhood, a script
kiddie out there altered code from an existing ransomeware
package to become the beneficiary of your ignorance in opening
suspect attachments and profited by your inability to follow
the simple instruction:back that shit up. no "hackers involved"
In terms of technical prowess, and both the criminal and
"white hat" environment, "hack" and "hacker" used to garner
some respect, now the terms are so misused they have no value.
This is just going to leave me very irritated the rest of the day
