"Hate the RIAA? You\u2019re not alone. Lots and lots of people aren\u2019t happy with the music industry group over the way it has handled the piracy and peer-to-peer situations that have commanded the attention of bloggers, journalists, politicians, and free-music-craving grandparents all over the globe.\nWell, for those of you who wish the association ill, here\u2019s a little find that you might enjoy.\nTorrentFreak\u2019s Ernesto posted a story earlier this morning about the subversion of the website owned and operated by the industry collective by way of a \u201Csimple SQL injection,\u201D after which much of the information presented to visitors to the domain was erased.\nAccording to a history of commentary on Reddit corresponding to the attack, the removal of data from the website was not performed immediately after the hole was exploited. Rather, a large group of individuals professing anti-RIAA sentiments coalesced to bombard the site with data requests and force the host server(s) to crash. While that effort was underway, the apparent vulnerability in the code was exploited.\nThe end result is a muzzled domain that now fails to oblige requests for information. (Such was still the case at 12:23PM EST today.) Does that put a smile on your face?\n(Credit: Screenshot taken from TorrentFreak.com)"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
