SCO Group Web Site Attacked Again
FreeLinux writes "With not much SCO news today, it seemed that this story was needed - Reuters is reporting that, SCO is again suffering under a DDoS attack that has crippled their web site and email system since Wednesday morning. For the third time this year, the SCO Group's Web site came under attack, apparently by hackers unhappy with the company's legal threats against users of the Linux operating system. The denial-of-service attack started at 6:20 a.m. EST Wednesday and continued through the day, said Blake Stowell, spokesman for the Lindon-based company."

I want you all to very clearly remember that quote the next time Microsoft tries to claim that Palladium is about "giving the user the control to be sure that only the programs they've authorized are running on their computer" or something along those lines...

So they'll start trying Bush and various troops later this year then, eh?
Bush's US used seige tactics against a civilian city of 1 million. That's a war crime according to international law, which states you can't just willy nilly attack civilians.
Actually, because people who want real news don't go to CNN? And if you go to a site like takebackthemedia.com, they have plenty of nice, easy to understand explinations as to why, say, locking up a bunch of civilian men, women and children in cages in a Cuba military base without a trial and any hope of one isn't legal according to any law except BushCo's.
I got a *lot* of information on the war from iraqwar.ru, and one of it's English translated mirrors. That site got it's information from various Russian agencies which had a *much* more liberal stance on reporting the news than BushCo's US media.
And yes, it's a trustworthy site. They reported on quite a few things that were simply ignored by CNN or buried, spun, and lied about by FoxNews and other propoganda machines like them.
