- nodesocket 12y agoWhat exactly are we looking for? Only see a few failed to load JavaScript assets, and those could be from my Hotel wireless injecting their Ads. http://engine.adzerk.net/ados.js?_=1411579196670 http://engine.adzerk.net/ados.js?_=1411579196670 and http://cloak.ovatn.net/adframe/cframe.js?id=1491 http://cloak.ovatn.net/adframe/cframe.js?id=1491
- thirdtruck 12y agoThe page was temporarily replaced with a plain-text message explicitly stating they were hacked and that the hacker was looking for a job. The page has since been reverted.
- daviddede 12y agoDo you have a screenshot by chance?
- thirdtruck 12y agoAfraid not.
- spacefight 12y agoHotel wireless connections are sometimes considered harmful. Use a VPN connection of your choice (i.e. your employer, a trustworthy provider or else).
- sp332 12y agoWhy does this go to a documentation page? Anyway this was already discussed https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8359223 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8359223
- Zancarius 12y agoI don't think this is the same event as mentioned in that post (and in fact, the post has since been updated) as pointed out by ambiate [1] (below). The original discussion was related to a compromise supposedly detected by RiskIQ. This is something else entirely. To quote the link in that article: "Update via Twitter: We have detected a new compromise of jquery.com and are taking action to mitigate the attack. Updates to follow. – September 24, 2014 at 12:20PM EDT" [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8362743 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8362743

- haliphax 12y agoWhy do people do this rather than linking to a screenshot or something? By the time it comes up in my RSS news reader, it is almost always not in the same condition as when the link was posted.
