Is the Taleban a for-profit entity? Just wait til ICANN hears about this!

taliban.com|org|net, taleban.org and taleban.net are cybersquatters. How clueless. Waiting around for that million-dollar offer from whom? Desperate dot-commers trying to catch that elusive terrorist vibe?

I recommend people read this excellent article from the LRB on the Taliban - it really helped me understand what was happening there.

Was there something strange there? If so, a screen shot should have been provided. By the time I got here, nothing looked strange.

Actually, that happens a lot with these "hack" announcements.

The hack message wasn't worth saving. It was one or two sentences of Russian h4x0r that didn't make a lot of sense.

It's been hacked again... Here's what the message says in case the server admin actually does his job:

How you can write me that you are not TERRORISTS! You are ! It's my answer!
