SwissKnives.Info Hacked?
on: January 28, 2014, 02:04:04 AM
I just went to look there...and this AnonGhost junk pops up. I sent him an email about it, I hope it's nothing too severe or damaging.

Why would someone want to do that to the blog?

Seriously? :rant:

This is a second instance a SAK blog has been hacked in the past year. :(

Hope Martin has everything backed up. :-\ It's past 2 a.m. here so I doubt he'll be checking his email or blog soon.

Should be OK again.

Fortunately the hacker just changed the start site but not the posts and the content.

I hope the wordpress update has closed the backdoor  :twak:

Glad to see it back up. :tu: Do you have a backup of it somewhere. Or maybe a mirror blog that you could revert to if everything was lost? I'd hate to see all this info lost because of some idiot playing hacker. ::)

Wonder why they even went after you. I did a little research and in an interview they were boasting about only going after government and big business, not after small websites and especially not websites about information. Of course they don't care if the website is owned by someone who is Jewish ... they are extremely anti-semitic and anti US.
