Slashdot Mirror
SCO.com Defaced
A whole slew of readers wrote:"According to an Image on the SCO website they own all our code and we shall pay them all our money. (found at Heise online (german IT news). " Yes, I'm sure this will help the whole legal case; defacement has always been such a valued piece of input in court *cough*.
Very relevant for a change
.. but they *do* own all your code ~~~

Nice of him not to use the AYCABTU line.
Though you have to admire the subtlety..
Remember, there are no stupid questions. But there are a lot of inquisitive idiots.
All your base are belong...
Ah what I wouldn't give to see the look on there faces when they relieze this!
Course since I looked at the image, I am sure now they will try and charge me $699.00.
I would have posted a mirror, but the /. affect on the SCO site is much more fun.
It's not so obvious that the website is defaced =P
I welcome our new code-owning overlords.
"SCO defaced their own site to discredit the Linux Community". You heard it here first.
...is what, a year late?
It's been fixed now, it's gone back to the original slogan: "We own all your code, pay us all your money."
Conclusion: It's not a defacement. It's their new corperate motto.
Wanted: One witty yet thought provoking
Hopefully they wont be as slow when they start doing the linux support we pay them for
When they start? I'm already getting the full service.
As a completely unbiased and disinterested observer, I bought a SCO license to see what the fuss was about. Since then NOBODY has sued me for anything, least of all for violating any code SCO might possibly have in the Linux kernel (including any Linux kernels in alternate universes). You can't argue with service like that. I'd recommend it to anyone.

The image is already "tagged" 'Hacked by realloc(' in plain view.

A little too open it would seem.
Technology, the cause of and solution to all of life's problems.
Looks like the site is still defaced.. maybe they should teach HTML to some lawyers and fix things up :)
..and sco.com is hacked. Therefore IIS is more secure :)
Why do you think this is a defacemant?
It's their new business model (you insensitive clods)
I don't need a signature.
...searching the SCO website for the phrase 'litigious bastards'. It returns an error message: #1040 Too Many Connections.
Made me laugh, anyway.
I got an infallible rock that keeps tigers away. You can even see me in my webcam and I guarantee: you'll see absolutely NO tigers!!! . Only US$ 694.99 !!

Apparently they haven't changed it yet because their web-development department is having trouble finding the FrontPage shortcut
It's only business when someone burgles your house, too. Most of us still take it personally.

And I hope the burglar doesn't take it personally when I shoot his dumb ass...
And another one, as seen from Telnet in Windows XP:

Heh, only on slashdot would people note a hackers name in the background of a defaced website, and totally overlook a chick in a picture.
Sounds like the tagline for some syndicated action flick.
SCO will be around for many years to come?

What the hell are they doing in This picture?f

I for one, am glad that they got h4x0r3d after publishing this smut.
Hey, it's only business.
:)
Well at the very least it's quite revealing about the security (or lack thereof) of their OS !
I think they should pay themselves $690 and put Linux on their servers
Thomas-
"hacked by realloc("
i knew realloc(3) was a bad apple! sure, it seems so simple to use, but how many people handle the error case correctly? however, i never would have expected an ansi c function to deface a website like that. it's just so high level (and childish). that kind of behaviour you'd imagine seeing from a language like perl, perhaps. from stdlib, i expected better.
When questioned, just remember the magic phrase "I thought I saw a gun."
Or: "This guy is faking being dead!" BLAM BLAM
Swine.
I just had to go back and look at the photo. You're right, there *is* a woman in the picture, all I'd noticed before was the tag...
I feel so pathetic, and I hate you for pointing it out.
