Truth Out was hacked "and our content deleted"
« on: March 31, 2011, 04:28:10 PM »
Laugh it up now, DUmmies. You giggled like a bunch of pre-pubescent grafitti artists when your "Anonymous" retards were effing with websites, so don't cry now when you get a dose of your own medicine.

I told you there were serious Black Hats on the conservative side, too, but you have to be smacked in the face to get your attention.

Truth Out was hacked "and our content deleted"
 From Truht Oout, in my email box today:

Dear Readers,

Late last night, Truthout.org was attacked and our content over the past ten days was deleted. We're working to capture the cache versions of those stories that are no longer available and republish them on our website.

You may find that some links will take you to "Page Not Found." Right now we're working to restore the vandalized stories.

We will update you as soon as we have more information, and hope to be back in full force very soon.

Thank you for your patience and your support!

Sincerely,

The Truthout Team

1. I wonder if it was a conservative "Anonymous"-type group?
 Apparently this type of thing is only funny when it happens to people with whom we disagree.

6. There is some sort of moral equivalency to responding to
 censorship aggressively as Anonymous did when a news organization was shut down by the U.S. Government and hacking into a news site because you don't like their political views?

"Anonymous" has messed with a lot of people, DUmbass, including hacks and DOS attacks on people they disliked just because of their ideology.

Of course, everything the Left does is pristine and righteous. They seem to find a moral justification for everything from refusing to pay debts to stealing income from others to sexual perversion to slaughtering millions of unborn children.

Damn.

I was hoping to read more about Rove's impending indictment and how Obama will heal the Earf.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Well, no great loss if they can't find the Bostonian Drunkard's stuff.

Just as likely to be simple incompetence, a disgruntled insider, or the internet equivalent of an "Insurance fire" to wipe out records of Pitt's old but embarrassingly-wrong prognostications.

That was kind of sort of one of my own stray random thoughts; maybe the Bostonian Drunkard wrote something really stupid, and embarrassing for TruthOut, and they needed to cover their tracks.

Go ahead, you can say it, "C-a-v-e".

Now, why in the HELL would we hack a site to remove your content? You don't think we enjoy reading your spaceball bullshit? Why do you think we have the DUmpster? It's not us that wants to silence you; it's you idiots who want to silence us. Our word gets out we gain followers and voters. You idiots being exposed forces you to lose people, and voters, and states, and congressional members, and, well, you get the point.  :nutkick:

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

The culprit should be easy to nab. There couldn't be more than 100 people who even know of truthout's existence.

Oh, you can bank on it.
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.
