How did David beat Goliath? Terrorist is just a name given by the invading nations. How do you expect a backward country to fight against a superpower? There is nothing cowardly, what matters is winning and giving them a lesson, a taste of their own medicine. Hitting below the belt is perfectly fine with me.Originally posted by HENG@:well hacking is a sore loser's way of making a statement. Want to make a statement? Start an anti-xiaxue blog. cannot out-talk her? then blame him/herself for being so talentless with words. hacking? cowardy. not that im a fan of hers, u understand. But no matter what, I think hacking her blog is crossing the line. im just sick of seeing people who cannot get even fairly resort to underhanded means. how low does one have to stoop to get even? Even with her being as offensive as most people say she is, how come I don't feel an urge to go hack her site? Make no qualms about it, the hacker him/herself is also a petty little snivel, who doesn't even have the balls to stand out and attack her head-on. Nooo... instead, little gutless dipwad has to hide somewhere and namelessly launch their pathetic little attacks. Sounds just like those cowardy terrorists we see. *pui*![]()

Would u like it if someone hippie protesting against the production of greenhouse gases comes around the night and torches your car because it is his right of expression? It is also your right not to have your property destroyed.
Wow, couldn't have phrased it better myself. You're the man.Originally posted by DriftingGuy:Like what some of the people has mentioned here.. what goes around, comes around, that hacker will get his just deserts and what he did was wrong no matter his justification...
But on the other hand, have you ever wondered why xiaxue became a victim? I believe that some of the misfortunes that befall us can be avoided. If xiaxue dared to post entries online that she knew would offend many people then she must accept the possibility that sooner or later the above event may happen..
Yes, theres nothing wrong with being frank, controversial etc.. however what about racists comments, insults, personal attacks? If being frank is a viable excuse then I could just insult or post racists comments about anyone i dislike and when questioned will reply" Oh don't limit my freedom of speech..."
Yes, if you don't like it, you can dont read it. But think about this, xiaxue is different. Whether you like it or not she has influence. Sooner or later her blog entries will reach parties who may be offended indirectly..
If you have power, it comes with great responsibility... if you dare to post something controversial then dare to face up to the possibility to angry retaliations.. this is an imperfect world but thats how it is
But then again the loss of 3000 mails and 2 years of blogging is horrible... there will be bad karma for the hacker
I agree that hacking her site isn't an ethical thing to do, but I do not have a high moral opinion of the things she says either. So in my perspective it is just a case of the bad hitting the bad. Freedom of expression? I think people take it for granted.Originally posted by HENG@:well hacking is a sore loser's way of making a statement. Want to make a statement?

well said. i concur.Originally posted by SumOne:Xiaxue is the kind of person who takes freedom of expression for granted. Being honest shouldn't be the excuse used to hurt others.
Depends if her photos are still in the blog after the hacking....Originally posted by iveco:What if SPG blog kena vandalised? Will you rise to the occasion and defend the blogger?
maybe someone close to her??Originally posted by dragg:please dont assume that people who are against the hacker's actions are people who support xiaxue or addicted to her blogs.
Thats a second possibilityOriginally posted by auringedotcom:Step 1. Popularity declines
Step 2. Nobody cares about my blog
Step 3. Hack my own blog
Step 4. Profit!
Considering the attention whore that she is, that's a HIGH possibilityOriginally posted by DriftingGuy:Thats a second possibility![]()
the photo that was used in the papers is so good for laughs. think it's one of her very few original photo that wasn't photoshoped.Originally posted by crazy monkey:end up she appear in newspaper and got more publicity![]()
Whats the difference between an old-school diary and a blog? Its the same difference between taking off your clothes in your room versus taking it off along orchard road... If you get flamed, blame no oneOriginally posted by Kuali Baba:Wow, this is a BIG deal.If this happened to any other blog it wouldn't even cause a ripple. Pardon my sceptism.
I stick to the old-school handwritten diary.![]()
but david stood right up to goliath. he didn't hide behind some rocks and pelt goliath with stones. no he stood right in front of goliath n smacked him noggin. nope. david vs goliath here is too inaccurate an analogy. besides, vietnam engaged in guerilla warefare against the US, it didn't go to US to bomb innocent people. cowardy attacks like the recent london attacks doesn't help anyone win. It only creates more hate and more reason for people on both sides to kill innocents.Originally posted by F Takumi:How did David beat Goliath? Terrorist is just a name given by the invading nations.

im not saying if the things she says is good or bad. im saying that the hacker has no right in anyway to hack her blog. And I've just gotten back from London, where majority of the places hit are very close to my home there, so excuse me if I don't feel quite charitable about such cowardy actions. i've been very anti-war about the iraq war and i still am, but i condemn the bombers as well.Originally posted by SumOne:I agree that hacking her site isn't an ethical thing to do, but I do not have a high moral opinion of the things she says either.
