QUOTE Danish websites hit by DoS attacks and defacements
Humphrey Cheung
10 Feb 2006 01:23
In the past week, hundreds of Danish newspapers, blogs and other websites have been hit by hackers. Most of these attacks were Denial of Service attacks, which are easily done by sending a flood of traffic against a website. In other attacks, hackers defaced the websites to show anti-Danish messages including calls for boycotts and violence.
These attacks come after Muslims denounced newspapers from several European countries, Denmark in particular, for printing cartoons of the prophet Muhammad. Zone-H, an Internet security website, said it has been tracking the affected websites and currently has a list of almost 1000 sites.
Politically oriented website defacements have been happening for several years. Back in 2003, hundreds of websites were defaced leading up to the Iraq conflict. The ongoing tensions between Pakistan and India have also spawned website attacks by both sides.
The Jyllands-Posten newspaper site, the newspaper that originally printed the cartoons, has not yet been successfully hacked. Full article http://www.tgdaily.com/2006/02/10/danishwebsites_hacked/QUOTE I found it kind of interesting what about you?

I remember going to a website a couple of years ago that showed cartoons that were in Iranian newspapers. The cartoons were extremely insulting to the US, Russia, Israel, and other countries, especially European ones, as well as Christians and Jews. And none of the Muslims were protesting about those being bigoted, blasphemous, intolerant or unfair to Christianity or Judaism. Their cartoons remind me of propaganda put out during WWI and WWII. They were duhumanizing the non-Muslim subjects shown. The purpose of propaganda like that during wars is to make it easier to think of the other side as the enemy, and easier to kill them. It's no wonder there's so many terrorists in the Middle East, the media is putting out war type propaganda. So why should they complain about a few cartoons about Mohammed? They expect everybody non-Muslim to treat Islam with far more concern than they themselves show non-Muslim people and religions. Why do they feel free to insult other countries, cultures and religions, but complain it's unfair and disrespectful if other people do it to them. Why do they expect other people to show more fairness and respect than they do? How can they honestly think their religion and culture is better than everybody elses, when they appeal to other people to act better than they do? "Don't do as I do, do as I say, so you're better than I am." "But I'm still better than you anyway." Isn't that just more than a little bit hypocritical? They're having riots and killing people over a few newspaper cartoons! They claim most Muslims are peaceful people. But these riots are happening all over the world, not with just a handful of extremists in one small place. How peaceful is that? The whole thing has given me a lower opinion of Muslims than I had before. Which wasn't that high because of their lack of belief in human rights, and the way they treat women.

I've made all sorts of online friends in the past, and I got bored and just moved on. Now
there's a new group and I just don't know. Maybe it's because I've spent this
Saturday night having a few drinks and sitting on the internet with nothing to do. Does anyone else
ever feel like just giving it all up? I feel like I am stuck in a rut. I haven't learned
anything new design wise lately, either. That usually makes all of this exciting again. Has anyone
else ever thought like this? What did you do about it? I'm such a nerd. /sad.gif" style="...

Social Websites
- websites that create communities - what is your experience? (1)
Social software on the web is of course not a new phenomenon. We all know friends reunited and
similar pages. But I noticed that there seems to be a new wave of social websites. The first one
for me was the Plaxo . An excellent address book, that automatically updates the entry of your
friends details, when they change their records, and you don't have to worry about not knowing
their address anymore or loosing touch. They keep your address up to date. And everytime you or your
friend change something in their address, it automatically updates it in your section as...
