The few people who do actually visit this site might have noticed a change.
That’s because some poofter hacked the WordPress and Coppermine sections a few days ago.
Instead of spending weeks tracking down the exact scripts that had been changed, I simply reinstalled everything, upgrading to the latest version in the process.
I guess the fact that the site was hacked indicates that someone looks at it.
I have no problem with people exposing weaknesses and problems in software or websites, or to even circumvent unreasonably restrictive licensing systems to protect themselves or their company, but to deface, destroy or manipulate a site to steal is completely unacceptable.
I am of the opinion that malicious hackers deserve a slow and painful death.
It’s time the Namby Pamby politically correct culture of today’s society is examined closely.
The death penalty is appropriate in actually a lot of cases and malicious hacking is one of them.
And I don’t give a shit how old — or young — the offender is. Get rid of them and make the bastards suffer while doing it.
