HackIngress Puzzle Solution

To start, type:
> hint
They will not control us...we will be victorious.

Those are lyrics from the song "Uprising" by Muse (also off their album "resistance"...just as an aside)

HINT1
> uprising
You're not ready for that yet...but the first step is right in front of you, staring you in the face like a mirror.

HINT2
> uprising
(3hrs later): You're not ready for that yet...but the first step is right in front of you, staring you in the face like a mirror. Be clear and look higher

SOLUTION
It means type 'clear' to get erase the screen, then look higher into the URL http://hackingress.com/3va77xq4ili1/
'like a mirror': take 3va77xq4ili1, and reverse it to get 1ili4qx77av3
In the terminal, run:
> decode 1ili4qx77av3

You get:
DECODE SUCCESSFUL: L3 @ X2X8.X5X6X5X4X1X6-Y8Y1.Y7Y3Y3Y2Y4Y7

Remove the X's and Y's (indicating coordinates) to get
L3 28.565416  -81.733247

Enter that in the ingress.com/intel SEARCH box

Download it and adjust the levels, and you will see a code hidden in the bottom left: 'd2hpcHB1cnI=?' if you try to DECODE it, it tells you it's too simple and that it's binary data.

ERROR: Data is corrupt, invalid string: '._..._..._....._._._._..._....._..__._._..__._._..__._....__.___._..__._._..____._._..__'?

The "invalid string" looks like morse code, but it's actually binary...replace the "." with 0 and "_" with 1
That gets you: 0100010001000001010101000100000100110101001101010011010000110111010011010100111101010011

Convert that to TEXT and you get 'DATA5547MOS'

>DATA5547MOS
Unlocks the sixth (and final) stage...and the invite code.
