exploit since he touts how numerous/easy they are.

 days?  Is it registered to Dave Feustel?  The

whois wideopenbsd.org reveals:
Tech Name:Registration Private

Which I believe invalidates the whole idea of having a whois service so we can 
contact the domain administrators... I mean if Google and MS both have whois 
contacts listed, why should people be allowed to keep their information 
private, but I digress.  

I don't think that your comment about Dave owning the domain was called for.  
Dave is not the owner of the domain, in fact see his question to the fisrt 
time this was posted way back in 2004:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openbsd-miscm=109974430125648w=2

My cynical side definately agrees with this.

Please, search the archives. In this case this isn't just an rtfm-type 
response. You shouldn't have to have just a few sentences to sum up Mr. 
Feustel, as it wouldn't do him justice. Hours of reading enjoyment are

besides this all:

I dunno what his deal is, all I can say is that I've run OBSD since
2.5, and not one of them has been rooted.  Compare that with various
Linuxes I've run that have been rooted/defaced/turned into
zombies/warez/movie servers, and I think what we've got is a genuine
FUD site.

Funny read though.

I notice that their links section is 2 years old, which goes with the
mentality behind the rest of it. They make statements and accusations
against OpenBSD, but back it up with Nothing.

Poor quality, poor content, poor souls...

As for their 1337-ness about running on xBox, well, enough said.

I am skript kiddie!!! Bow before me! w()()t!

Thanks for that, a spark of entertainment for a few minutes.

Right...  If I control a domain, I can point it wherever I want.  This is
clearly a part of their smear campaign against OpenBSD:

$ host www.openbsd.org
www.openbsd.org A   129.128.5.191
$ host www.wideopenbsd.org
www.wideopenbsd.org A   129.128.5.191
$ host wideopenbsd.org
wideopenbsd.org A   194.145.249.6

www.wideopenbsd.org points to the machine that truly runs openbsd.org,
whereas wideopenbsd.org points to a machine in Sweden.  

Conspiracy?  No.  You've been had.

Not only that, the number of times you guys repeated the links will 
raise Google's interest (and that site's profile) the next time it digs 
through a mail archive.  I'm sure the author of that site will thank 
you guys.
