I'd be laughing... if that wasn't my ISP. :censored:

Am i the only one who thinks this is genius? Proving that these corrupt souless bottom feeders are for too inept to be trusted with personal details and information. Highlighting the quite serious flaws in anti-piracy and total hypocritical nature of the people involved in enforcing it.
I feel sorry for those who had their personal details thrown out onto the web of course, but which company are going to risk having their reputation squashed and customers alienated by trusting one of these soon-to-be-ruined law firms?

Not the sharpest article in the archive... since when does a tech site describe copying a folder as "hacking"?
I could copy a folder from an unsecured root directory, but know I couldn't hack through a secure one - please think before copying bad journalism from the BBC (my assumption, but they appear to have started all the talk of "hacking" in respect of the data loss).
