Lenovo's no good, very bad week of security may be getting worse -- Lenovo.com appears to have been hacked, likely in response to the Superfish scandal. This afternoon some visitors trying to access the site instead get a slideshow of webcam pics of kids sitting at their computer, along with a link to a Twitter account claiming to represent the hacker group Lizard Squad -- all set to the sounds of "Breaking Free" from High School Musical. The HTML code says this "new and improved rebranded" site is featuring Ryan King and Rory Andrew Godfrey -- two people that some internet posters have identified as members of Lizard Squad. Not everyone is seeing the replacement page though -- for our staff it only appears over certain connections, but not others -- so it could be a DNS redirect that hasn't hit everywhere. We've contacted Lenovo about the situation, but have not received a response yet.
[Thanks, Mark]
We're breaking free! Soarin', flyin', there's not a star in heaven that we can't reach!
