I was recently hacked by this crew:

Actually, not that awesome, because hacking wordpress sites, particularly ones like this one which generate next to no traffic, is a bit like taking candy from a baby. That baby being me!
But I must say, knowing how little attention my site gets, I feel honored! Thank you for paying attention Draxiax crew!
These smart folks are based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. And I just want to say, it makes me proud. My fellow Hindi-speaking brothers have acquired quite a bit of esoteric knowledge which, after witnessing the wasteful meaningless frivolity of most of the web-developing yuppies here in the SanFrancisco Bay Area, makes me feel like the proper checks and balances are instituted in the world. It took me about 4 hours to restore my site and learn about creating special hidden files to safeguard my site, it wasn’t a big deal, just an annoyance at first. But after going through all of it, I feel strangely thankful. This information I learned is not important, nor fun, nor exciting, but why should I be on the web if I don’t know how to use it or protect myself from it? That is the important lesson I learned. Thanks Draxiax Crew!
