So We Got Hacked
from the we're-working-on-it dept
As a whole bunch of you quickly let us know, someone hacked the site tonight. We got the site back together quickly, and have been working away on fixing some of the other vandalism -- such as a bunch of comments that got deleted. We'll get those restored shortly as well, but while we're working on it, we've turned off the ability to comment for the time being. Hang in there, and we'll have a more complete explanation soon enough. If you need to contact us in the meantime, please use the contact form. Thanks.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
