I was wondering that too. Then I read the first sentence of the article.

A lack of security controls allowed hackers to "wipe" the Recording Industry Association of America's (RIAA) website on Sunday.

That's hilarious. They should have made the background of the page the "10/23 Never forget." graphic tiled.

Then it would have been perfect.

I do think the RIAA is going a little crazy, so seeing this news feels good, despite the fact that it won't do anything to help the people that have been wronged.

Thats funny. Now they need to hold the RIAA's site hostage and get Demonoid back.

LOL! Oh man. This reminds me of when an old eFriend of mine (we aren't really eFriends anymore) hacked the canadian nuclear security website. That was copulate hilarious, and then a day later it was all over the news

I might be able to find some old newspostshttp://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2007/02/08/cnsc-hacked.html

There. He also replaced the article 1337 back then. Good times.
