taco,
 
i think you have missed james' point here.
 
"jenny dots" has simply registered a domain name peterbeattie.com and created a 
webpage at this domain that redirects users to another site. in my book, this is not 
"hacking", and the constant use of the word "hacking" in the article is ridiculous.
 
if, however, jenny dots had hacked mr beatties' official website at teambeattie.com 
and put the redirect there, then the issue should be news.

I personally think it is a bit ridiculous of you boosting you hack websites
on a daily basis.
For what reason?
To help people out or just for fun? If you do it to help people out, then I
am all for it, but be careful there are not many (if not none) people out
there that appreciate your help or even care.

I don't think the article is ridiculous, its just news - having said that, I
think there should be more info available from non-hackers about security
and hacking. Simply so that guys like all of us can defend ourselves..
