En mand, der hacker Mac…
Ja, uha, hvad er nu den af. Denne her gut har set sig rigtig nederdrægtigt ond på mac-folket, fordi de (vi) altid ævler løs om hvor meget bedre mac er. Han har sat sig for at hacke alle sider, som efter hans mening er liiige lovlig fremme i skoene omkring hvor gode macs nu er. Og fred være med ham. Han må jo gøre hvad han vil.
Det bizarre er blot, at han ikke beviser noget. Jo, han beviser, at han kan hacke hjemmesider, men det fleste private hjemmesider er hostet på Linux-servere eller andet, så det viser intet om at macs ikke er stærkere end andre computere. Hvis han derimod satte sig for at skabe en virus eller lign. som ramte mac-folket hårdt – lige der hvor de mener de er stærkest, netop at der ikke findes vira til mac, så havde han bevist noget. Men det kan han jo ikke:o) Og det griner jeg så meget over, at jeg ruller rundt på gulvet som en rullepølse.
Hans blog er her: malcor.blogspot.com .
Min kommentar på hans blog var dette:”But hacking a website with content that is pro mac proves nothing! Most sites are not hosted on mac servers. All that you are proving is that you can hack a web site – which many people can.
If you really wanted to hit the mac community where it hurts, you would write a malicious virus or something to that effect – but you probably can’t do that, can you? Of course not…
But seriously, keep up your good work at hindering people’s free speech. I am sure your parents are proud of you:o)”
Her er de to første mac-sites, der blev ramt:

What Really Happened, Sincere Apologies
Apple, Web 106 Thoughts »
Malcor. Most of you probably know that name by now. No, Malcor wasn’t real. Malcor wasn’t me. Malcor was created by the guys behind MacHeist. Here’s the story.
The whole idea of Malcor was to lead up into the MacHeist 2 story-line and first mission with a buzz. The guys really wanted to make season two of MacHeist successful, and saw this as a great opportunity to create some overall buzz – they didn’t expect it to pick up to this extent.
I wasn’t the main guy behind this, I simply handed over the keys to my site for 24 hours to the MacHeist crew in full support of their mission. I was part of this because I wanted MHII to be a success, and just like the other sites involved, the decision to help Phill out was an easily made. No cash changed hands in the process, it wasn’t a case of “selling out.â€
The idea wasn’t to pump up my traffic, gain readers, or gain exposure for my site. It was in full support of the base idea behind MacHeist – helping indie developers.
For those who believe I was involved for one thing, traffic, to but it bluntly, I don’t care about the traffic. I was involved in this and handed the keys over for those 24 hours to raise awareness of MacHeist and support the developers involved this year. I had no idea how the situation would be carried out, what message would go up on the site, or anything of the sort. I left the site login details for the team on a Friday night and headed away for the weekend, arriving back to chaos Monday morning.
Keeping it simple, I’ve felt like absolute crap over the past week knowing all this has gone on. I’m upset with myself that I let everything get this far. I’m disappointed that I let YOU down, something which will not happen again. I’m young, I made a mistake, and I know it. That’s the great thing about life, you live and you learn. I learnt something from the past week – and learnt something for the better, not the worse.
I’d like to take a minute and this chance to apologize to those who didn’t like the manner this was carried out in. I fully understand if you plan to unsubscribe from this weblog, you have every right and reason to do so. However please keep in mind, this wasn’t done in spite to raise traffic levels, it was done to show my support for Mac software developers who have teamed up with MacHeist this year. I’m sincerely apologetic to those who feel wrong done.
As John Casasanta stated (The MacHeist director), I hope we can put everything behind us now and move on to another great season of missions for MacHeist II, which will be here very soon after a few tweaks on their end.
Once again, my sincere apologies to you, the readers, the Media Temple team, and WordPress developers. Thanks for teaching me a lesson, I’ve come out better for it.
