I was just tipped off by a friend that SCO.com has been hacked. Now as another online friend commented, “aren’t they like, hacked everyday?”
Why yes I suppose they are, but this one is brilliant, since it is not readily recognizable. The hack is only one image, and made so well that you culd easily miss the text of the image. Just brilliant. Or as Dr. Dave commented, “maybe it’s just their new honesty-based policy.”
One could only hope. For posterity here is a screenshot of the defacement, enjoy.

You are correct sir, that is a subtle hack. And one that I appreciate greatly. Too many site defacements go the route of profanity and out of control changes, they don’t serve any real purpose.
The site is taken off line at once and changed, something like this misses the eye of the webmaster long enough to make an impact, and to get blogged about! Live in infamy SCO, live in infamy!
