Title is editorialized, it should be 'SOURCE INTERLINK CLOSURE AND REBRANDING PUTS 2600 IN LIMBO'.
The kneejerk reaction here is to hope that a bunch of hackers (read: script kiddies looking to impress) go after the 'new' company and cause havoc until they settle up. Credit to the crew at 2600 who as usual are advocating a calm, logical course of action and not looking for a personal army of hackers to carry out attacks.
I hope they are successful as I am a lifetime subscriber and I really like the print magazine. What happened is unfair and looks like a scam. If 2600 fight a clean battle and do not recover what they are owed, then I might not have a problem with some creative social engineering, etc. That's money I gave to 2600, and I'll have a real hard time feeling sorry for TEN if they have some technical difficulties in the future.
And 'Ten: The Enthusiast Network' should now be referred to as 'Ten: The Embezzlement Network' going forward. Call it what it is.
