I loved this chapter. Coming out and telling people about W1n5t0n and m1k3y and owning everything that “they’ve” done. I love that Marcus has a partner in crime in Ange. In this chapter, a girl named Masha is introduced to help Marcus get out of his situation. There is a vocab word introduced in Domain Name Service and it is the way your computer converts another computer’s name. I found more information about this below:
DNS (Domain Name System or Service) is a distributed Internet directory service. DNS is used mostly to translate between domain names (www.domainname.com) and IP addresses (123.123.123.123), and to control Internet email delivery. Most Internet services rely on DNS to work, and if DNS fails, web sites cannot be located and email delivery stalls.
DNS has two independent aspects:
1. It specifies the name syntax and rules for delegating authority over names. The basic syntax is:
local.group.site
2. It specifies the implementation of a distributed computing system that efficiently maps names to addresses.
In the DNS naming scheme, a decentralized and hierarchical mechanism is used by delegating authority for parts of the namespace and distributing responsibility for mapping names and addresses. The naming scheme of DNS is used to assign network device names globally and it is implemented by geographically distributed set of severs to names to addresses.
