Months ago, this blog was hacked into and manipulated by unknown person(s).
Even as WordPress support maintained it was impossible.
April 13, 2011, WordPress owner – Matt Mullenwag – admits to root hack.
Called it a “security incident”.
Automattic had a low-level (root) break-in to several of our servers, and potentially anything on those servers could have been revealed.
Were you notified direclty of the security breach via the very email address that may have been compromised due to WordPress’ lack of vigilance?
Me neither.
WordPress has the power to add whatever they want to individual WordPress blogs – including Google ads and badges to get you to vote for WordPress – and yet, WordPress owner, Matt Mullenwag, doesn’t find a documented breach in security important enough to directly notify the customers whose information his company allowed to be compromised.
How does it make you feel?
Especially when Mr Mullenwag has no such compunction when it comes to profiting from your hacked blog.
Proof to follow.
