The RIAA is a special target for hackers so they do get tons of extra hacking attempts then would normally be expected but it seems its just one hack after another. We don't see other sites like www.whitehouse.gov or www.microsoft.com getting hacked on a regular bases. This just re-enforces my theory that the RIAA just doesn’t get the internet.

Reader reports are flooding in that the RIAA.org has been defaced - again. At time of writing, the site appears to be down, And several readers have been kind enough to include screen grabs, showing that the front page today carried the following message.

Underneath the greets, there is a list of RIAA 'recommended' file-sharing tools, such as KaZaA and eDonkey. Downloads from these sites are 'sponsored by www.riaa.org'.

The RIAA site has been hacked four times in recent months. Surely, they should have figured out how to put a stop to this by now? ®
