Official Blu-ray site gets hacked and redirected to HD-DVD site

Yeah…the title pretty much sums this one up. The official site for the Blu-ray association was breached repeatedly on Friday. Security flaws are nothing new these days, with sites routinely fortifying themselves against malicious hackers. The humor here, however, is that whomever decided to execute this cyber-prank tossed a little humor in the mix, redirecting all traffic from www.blu-raydisc.com to www.hddvd.org, the main site for official HD-DVD business. We’re fairly certain that this had nothing to do with any official HD-DVD operatives, but no one in the HD-DVD camp is going to be upset by this. Now we sit back and wait for the Blu-ray rebuttal.
That’s classic.
Heh. The could have defaceed the site too. But iy’s still funny I can apreaciate the humor on this.
Lame. What a colossal waste of one’s time.
Hey test for al we know it coauld have been a 14 year old
Welcome to last week…
Who cares. Just a sad cry for attention from someone who likely has no social skills and no life.
Is this sort of stuff still funny?
This is pretty good since the Blu-Ray and HDDVD businesses have been at each others throats since they were first started.
Can you say technology war anybody?
Ithink this is pure hilarity! Hope the guy hacks the Yankees website and redirects it to the Red Sox or the Yankees suck webpage next.
Now I’m a harcore blu-ray fan. But I muast admit this was really quite clever.
Blu-Ray = PWNED
