The hacker's attack appeared to be in response to Madonna's most recent, typically colorful broadside against file-swappers seeking free copies of her music. The singer has put files that appear to be versions of her new songs onto peer-to-peer networks that actually contain recordings of her saying, "What the f*** do you think you're doing?"I guess they will not learn. You know if a bunch of geeks get together and say they are going to burn their CD's it does not mean the same thing as you think it does. Do I condone the methods of the hackers no, do I condone her methods, nope. But you antagonize a group they will fight back. What she did was the equivalent of starting a war (like in Iraq). And the enemy will fight back. If she did not want the site hacked she should not have fired the first shot.
The hacked page, as sent to CNET News.com by several readers, had a message that read, "This is what the f*** I think I'm doing." It also contained what appeared to be links to the album's songs.
