April to See Month of MySpace Bugs

Posted by Zonk on Sunday March 18, 2007 @10:30AM from the next-up-a-month-of-teddy-bear-bugs dept.

An anonymous reader passed us a link to PC World's coverage of the upcoming Month of MySpace bugs. Organized by a pair of wiseacre hackers tired of the 'Month of X Bugs', they are set up to 'highlight the monoculture-style danger of extremely popular websites.' Though it's supposed to be funny, outside security analysts have apparently been consulted on the project. "Though the project, which launches on April 1, has all the appearance of a practical joke one well-known hacker said he'd been contacted by the Month of MySpace team with legitimate security questions. 'Those guys and I have been keeping in touch,' said Robert Hansen, chief executive of Sectheory.com. 'It's funny but it's not a joke.'"

Jesus christ, the amount of hypocrisy and pointless messages here never ceases to amaze me.

Don't like www.myspace.com? Don't visit it, or are you attracted to the thought of teens girls exposing their selves but angry at their bad html-skills?.. you can't have it both ways, so stop f***** complaining you 40 year old man, chained up from any freedom by his over-protective-sex-bored 45 year old wife.
