Is Random.org Really Random? Think Again.

random.org

Random.org is a popular tool trusted by millions to generate random numbers—from lottery draws to giveaways, games, and more. But how secure is it, really?

I created a video some time ago to expose a simple truth: you might not be getting the fair chance you think you are.

I won’t be sharing the script. It was never meant to go viral or become a blueprint for cheating. It was simply a demonstration—to prove that even platforms that appear trustworthy can be manipulated or misunderstood.

So here’s my advice: be very cautious with internet lotteries, giveaways, or any competition relying on third-party “randomness.” Just because a number looks random doesn’t mean it was generated fairly—or that the system can’t be gamed.

Sometimes, the illusion of randomness is all it takes to fool a crowd.
