i dont get it how are these supposed to be hacks
These are not hacks. People are sending packets at certain ports on computers to see if they have ports open that can be used to hack them. Probably 99.9% of the attacks you see on the site are unsuccessful as the port is closed. For example port 23 is telnet and virtually nobody has port 23 open these days. They call them attacks and they kind of are but a more correct term would be port scanning.
Also I am extremely surprised all you tin foil hat conspiracy theorists didn't say anything in this whole thread about how there is a "Country" on this map in the middle of the ocean called Mil/Gov.
