Web's Biggest Porn Database Hacked
Oct. 27 2008, Published 7:07 a.m. ET
AND NO CUDDLING NECESSARY Easy living Online porn database redtube.com—which launched last April and has already become the 68th most popular site on the Web, according to Alexa—better up its security if it hopes to become the next YouTube: The site has yet to return to normal after being hacked yesterday by a group of prudish "Turkish cyber terrorists" known as "Netdevilz."
As of last night, visitors to the site were treated to a banner exclaiming ""No Porn!!! We're not first but we're the best," rather than the usual assortment of mostly unattractive folks bumping uglies. It's unclear how Netdevilz managed to breach the site's security measures, but it is feared that the "vulnerability may be present across hundreds of other porn tubes." (!!!)
Redtube had been redirecting to Web hosting provider atspace.com, but it appears that site is down now, too. Get it back up soon, guys! Millions of dudes around the world are counting on you so they can do the same.
