How To: Convert Protected M4P Files to MP3 Songs with iMovie and iTunes

I'm not sure exactly when it happened, but it's awesome that you can now download music from the iTunes Store that's free of DRM (digital rights management) limitations. That was always my biggest problem with buying music from iTunes. Paying a buck for a song that I can only play on Apple devices? Really? That's what finally led me away to other legal music downloading services like eMusic and Amazon.

How To: Get FeedingBottle Back in Kali 2.0

Back in Backtrack5 there was a nice GUI addon for the aircrack suite called feedingbottle. I liked it because it simplified easy tasks like fake auth with a click of a button.

It works over 90% of the time, from my personal experience. Though, please note: This is only a temporary fix.
