Hi ya.
Some "great" news: http://www.cgisecurity.com/2009/07/anti ... mages.html
A group of crackers apparently managed to replace all ImageShack hosted pictures with a "hacked" picture. Every website pointing to a ImageShack picture displayed an image of their choice.
Now, everyone probably remembers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jyllands-P ... ontroversy ? Imagine if the crackers would have replaced all ImageShack pictures with some nasty and offensive pictures of Allah or something similar... what would have happened? Alexander Levin (the creator of ImageShack) could have been killed.
