Yes and no. Yes because they believe it was "Anonymous" who hacked the system, as a retaliation to "the geohotz thing" and no because it could very well be something entirely separate. All we know is they had an intruder, have switched off

I have this, and I'm not a coder. I started life as a designer, working on mobile campaigns and the similar. When I came out of this "constantly sit in Photoshop" mode, I found it really hard to work. In a management role its impossible to

an interview is an interview, he didn't need the outburst. if he'd have skipped past it straight to the "we were singled out, we're used by..." part - I'm sure we wouldn't all be discussing it.

@angrycoder - your shitting me right? Because I don't have time to read EVERY comment I shouldn't be here?

I disagree, it will depend on their ability to put the product in front of users. The "techy" crowd might care about features, but few of the 500m+ (?) MSN users will.
