It was widely reported that the USSS had done it. The replacement logo
claiming the site had been taken over by the USSS site came at the
same time the USSS _had_ taken control of the website. Infact, the
site was in the control of the USSS long before it was announced to
the media. The USSS decided to be typical Americans and claim victory
in true American patriotic style. The gun hoe Americans who have _led_
to the killings of over 38,000 civilians by invading Iraq, which can
only be described by me as the mother of all terrorist attacks. Bin
Laden only bombed two towers in one city in the U.S, where as America
has bombed an entire nation leading to a complete blood bath of
innocent women children and men. There is no come back, Bin Laden and
company cannot equal that kind of scale of attack, America has carried
out the ultimate terrorist attack, and I for one am pissed about it.
The last thing people outside of the American smoke screen and
propaganda bubble need is the USSS going around replacing criminal web
site home pages with, in so many words "Owned by the United States
Secret Service", the nearest you can come to mimicing a script kid
like defacement. The mentality is the same, the 'mind think' is the
same, and theres very little diference between the two. It doesn't
matter if a box has been accessed legally or illegally, there is no
excuse for patriotic victory against any one, group or nation. By all
means close a web site down, secure the website, but don't replace the
home page of a criminal web site for any reason, with any type of
acknowledgement that a country or government organization has taken
control of a web site in true script kid "we own your web site" style.
It sends out the wrong message of conduct on the internet to those who
do have a vested interest in accessing web sites and changing a home
page with a political message, which the USSS replacement page indeed
was.
