4chan raids Epilepsy Site

[fadin sun]

Hackers try to spur epileptic seizures - Security - MSNBC.com

Apparently this WASN'T 4chan for once and was the CoS (church of scientology) who frammed 4chan for it.

Interesting read for teh lulz.

[*~NeoAdamus~*]

LOL @ CoS.

Was it Tom Cruise who planned the framing

[Pelafina]

*chan against Scientology possibly the stupidest cause I've ever heard of.

It needs to be over already.

Too bloody true :/


To be honest, it doesn't matter who actually did it, it is ****ing cruel full stop. Wow how big must they feel now? It never fails to amaze me how retarded some people can be, I mean why deliberately go out of your way to inflict pain like that on someone? I have a friend who is epileptic so maybe I am biased somewhat, but it isn't the sort of shit that you mess around with.

Wow some people have to much time on their hands, it sickens me to know they got a laugh out of what could have been something so much worse.

Certainly says a lot about the church and their integrity as a whole.

But it's not like any of us were uncertain about that before.

Best part of the article IMO:

Does this mean that they consider this attack on epileptic people on par with tricking people into going to an opposing campaign's website?
I mean srsly?

I am quoting this for truth and emphasis.

Article is great lulz, but the shit needs to stop

[Brutal]

lol this is ****ing genius.

So wait where did it say that Scientology was even involved. all i saw was

"I count this in the same category of teenagers who think it's funny to put a cat in a bag and throw it over a clothesline — they don't realize how cruel it is," said Paul Ferguson, a security researcher at antivirus software maker Trend Micro Inc. "It was an opportunity waiting to happen for some mean-spirited kid."

That was the only part of the article thata said who could have did it.

Agree'd. Even though it's funny, it was only funny because nobody was killed.

Also it was a rumor that the CoS did it, I'm not sure that it's a fact, but 4chan denies they did it.

[Guardian Soul]

Yeah, I don't see anything about the Church of Scientology at all.

[fadin sun]

Of course they didn't include it in the article silly.

People just automatically blame 4chan for raids.

[Suzakuseru]

Good god, this is hilarious! Well, at least the whole "4chan vs. CoS" thing... But I've got a sister with epilepsy, so I'm just glad none of the epileptic people were seriously hurt. =/
