Nothing personal. It said so in the code.

Mydoom appeared on 26 January 2004 as a mail-delivery failure. Subject: Error, or Mail Delivery System, or Mail Transaction Failed. Body: the message could not be displayed, see attachment. The attachment was the worm, and it mailed itself to every address it could find on the machine, from a forged sender, and skipped the addresses at universities, at Microsoft, and at the antivirus companies.

Within a day it was the fastest-spreading email worm ever measured, past Sobig and past ILOVEYOU, and twenty-two years later nothing has beaten it.

It opened a backdoor on TCP port 3127 and left it there. It carried a date: on 1 February 2004 every infected machine was to begin flooding sco.com, and on 1 February sco.com went down. A second variant added microsoft.com for 3 February. SCO put up $250,000 for the author on 27 January. Microsoft matched it on the 29th. Neither was ever paid.

Inside the binary was a string: sync-1.01; andy; I'm just doing my job, nothing personal, sorry. Nobody knows who Andy is. Nobody knows whether the job was the spam relay the backdoor made possible, or the SCO attack, or both, but a worm that apologises for itself is generally understood to have been written for money.

It stopped mailing itself on 12 February 2004, as coded. The backdoors stayed open.

It was polite about it. That is the part that does not sit right.

EXHIBIT 0030 / MYDOOM / 2004

Printing, size and care

Every exhibit is printed to order, direct to garment, by Monster Digital in Miami, Florida. The ink goes into the cotton rather than sitting on top of it, so there is no plastic feel and nothing to crack or peel. It fades the way a good print should: slowly, evenly, over years of washing.

The tee is a Gildan 64000 Softstyle. 100% ring-spun cotton on the solid colours; heathers and Sport Grey are cotton-poly blends. 4.5 oz, tape-reinforced shoulders, no side seams. Unisex, S to 3XL. The artwork is printed on the front, centred on the chest, about 8.5 inches wide by 12 inches tall.

The hoodie is a Gildan 18500 Heavy Blend. 50/50 cotton-poly, 8 oz, double-lined hood, front pouch pocket. Unisex, S to 5XL. The artwork is printed large on the back, about 9 inches wide by 12.5 inches tall, set below the hood so nothing hides under it. The UNHACKED emblem sits on the left chest at about 3.75 inches.

Care. Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang. No bleach. Do not iron over the print. That is the whole list.

Shipping

US shipping is free on every order, no minimum.

Every piece is printed when you order it, so nothing ships until the press runs. Monster Digital usually has an order printed and out the door within two business days. Allow five to eight business days from order to door in the US; most arrive sooner. You get a tracking number by email the moment it ships.

Everything ships from Miami, Florida. International orders are welcome: rates show at checkout, transit runs longer, and any customs duties are charged by your country, not by us.

Need to change or cancel? Email support@unhacked.shop right away. Orders go to print quickly, and once printing has started we cannot cancel, but the returns policy still covers you.

Returns and exchanges

If we got it wrong, we replace it free and you do not ship anything back. Damaged, misprinted, defective, or the wrong item: email support@unhacked.shop within 30 days of delivery with your order number and a photo. Replacement at no cost, or a full refund if you would rather.

If the fit is wrong or you changed your mind, returns are accepted for 30 days from delivery on items that are unworn, unwashed, and in original condition. Email us with your order number for instructions. Return shipping on these is paid by you; the refund goes to your original payment method within 5 to 10 business days of our receiving it.

Exchanges. Fastest route is a return plus a new order. Email us and we will help you get the size right the second time.

Full policy: Refund policy.
