[lonely panet]

this really made my morning,

 

after a night of baby raid on the bed and no sleep, after my 2nd coffee I noticed this

funny, and yes Fu** ISIS

That's astonishing, why Japan and why Aoi Art. Does not do any good to peshmerga cause.... Useless

[lonely panet]

I know,

Japan is so far from the middle east in every way, so disconnected. but maybe this hacker has done his due-diligence and maybe the USA is a large viewer of his website so this could be a sneaky posting hahahhahaa.

world really has gone banana...

I saw that today too and was a little taken aback. It's fairly non-malicious I think but like...what in the world. Of all the people to target you target a Japan-based Nihonto dealer? lol.

I contacted Tsuruta-san earlier today when the hack occurred and they are working with their sysadmin to update site security (apply the latest Word Press updates, new credentials, etc.).

 

Best regards,

Aren't peshmerga the good guys btw? Just saying...

Did not see the incident "live", but website defacement is usually script kiddie business: they usually just scan for easy, technically vulnerable targets, not for a meaningful one.

Often the defacer includes a political or philosophical claim, but, just like what happens in random political graffiti on urban walls, the location of the claim (hacked wesite or wall) is often just an opportunistic one.

 

And yes, in any case, we all disagree with the vandalism, but agree with the message.

"And yes, in any case, we all disagree with the vandalism, but agree with the message.​" We do? First time we all agree on anything, if true. John

First time we all agree on anything.... John

Depends on who you ask lol.

 

But i'd say generally yeah most people here think they are the good guys. I'd hope!

[AndyMcK]

Well lets say that they are the good guys for the time being, just like the predesessors were during the cold war.. :D

The thing is, they are not a unified organisation and there are some things going on among and between the groups that are not too good. What is their connection to the PPK and Abdullah Ocalan? The Turkish situation. The Mujahedeen were considered heroic during Russia's Afghan foray. I don't think it is so clear cut, god and bad. John

Often the case (not being so clear cut).

Sometimes I ask myself if we are always and everywhere "the good guys"...
