A Moron with Hacking Skills

August 7th, 2005 | Tags:

I had a post up which quoted comment I made on Brent Colbert’s blog. Now I don’t.

Because this is very much a work in progress I’ve not built the assorted protections which a blog needs to keep morons from taking down posts which they are incapable of responding to in a marginally intelligent manner. Frankly, the people who read this site when it was on blogspot would never have stooped to this sort of cheap hackery.

Apparently Brent Colbert or one of his supporters, having brought a rock to gunfight figure the best thing to do is to shove it down the memory hole.

I would very much appreciate anyone happens to have a copy of the comment or a portion sending it to me. As for the sort of person who would hack a site to delete a post…sad. Very, very sad.

    I did a quick google search on your url, and Colbert’s url, to try and get Google’s cache of the missing page. I may have had the wrong url though.

    If you have the url of the comment, or of your post, or even some of the text, try a Google search, and see if its still has a cache. It will depend if Google indexed it in time before it was erased. But once Google caches something, it hangs around for a long time.
