RIAA.com's complete database erased

Some people exploited a SQL Injection bug that has been around for a while and they were able to erase their database and completely slowing down their website.
With a simple SQL injection, all their propaganda has been successfully wiped from the site.

....so if you have a couple of illegal MP3's, you might be able to manage to stay out of jail a couple of days more...

when I hear stuff on the radio or TV, don't I have a license to keep a copy on my PC or PS3? I was entitled to hear it, and for safety I keep a copy of what I heard..

Take that RIAA.

If anybody cares, a great website for Divx is joox.net. They have a lot of stuff there including full movie downloads.

Thanks, I'll check that out. Helpful people get bubbles (not that you need any more) :D

Crazyglues6367d ago (Edited 6367d ago )

I just laugh every time I hear about people sticking it to the man...
and if anyone really deserves it, it's the RIAA

This story is priceless... But I'm sure they got backup's so don't expect them to be down for too long.

The 'Stop Killing Games' initiative is close to its final deadline

Ross Scott—also known as Accursed Farms on YouTube—has been fighting tooth and nail for almost a full year to help spearhead game preservation. Starting after it was announced that Ubisoft's The Crew would be shutting down, permanently ending support for the game, Scott launched the "Stop Killing Games" initiative.

That makes a twofold deadline for the Stop Killing Games initiative. Or, at least, one headed up by Scott: The UK petition, which ends July 14, and the EU Citizens' Initiative, which ends July 3.

If you live in the EU then Please sign this or our game ownership rights and game preservation is
at stake. I know there isnt much time left but please consider signing the petition

I never knew Ross Scott was doing this

I love Freemans Mind

People whine and in the end don't do a thing. Then whine more when they get screwed some more smh. If this makes it then it'll be monumental for consumers. That Pirate software guy was no help either smh.

Oh look no further than the "Upcoming layoffs at MS" topic. It will easily top the Hottest of the week.

Special guests like Mr. Dead might also show up. You just watch.

Playdead co-founder slammed with lawsuit as bitter row with co-founder escalates

Playdead co-founder Dino Patti is allegedly being sued by his former studio and business partner.
Patti was threatened with a lawsuit earlier this year after he posted a now-deleted LinkedIn post that shared an "unauthorized" picture of co-founder Arnt Jensen and discussed some of Limbo's development. Patti said Jensen demanded a little over $73,000 in "suitable compensation and reimbursement," adding that he had "repeatedly" had such letters over the last nine years.
