Did anyone catch a load of this Zodiac guy taking over Wiki?

[soong]

I saw Michael Phelps page and it was hacked by some uber nerd named' The Zodiac' in reference to the zodiac killer...Anyone know much about this at all?


Kinda lame and creepy if you ask me.

haven't seen any of his pages but read about it on Yahoo answers.. Believe it's the real Zodiac killer ? nahh.

I thought the suspected Zodiac Arthur Lee Allen died some years ago?

He died in 1992 but it was never proven it was him

Well, I believe everything I see in movies, especially when they're directed by David Fincher.

Is it really that hard to hack wikipedia? Anyone and everyone being able to edit it and all...

Yeah, some moron hacked my Shergold page....luckily I can restore stuff as the page creator.

More importantly can that even be considered hacking? I would say no, that's merely editing.

Eh, it was based off a book. It wasn't pure conjecture by the director.

And I think that it's pretty clear it's not the Zodiac killer anyway... Those murders would make the killer a minimum of 60+ years old. It's well known that the elderly are too dumb to use the interwebs.

It's not really hacking if you edit a wikipedia page that can be edited by anyone, this is why wiki sucks as an academic source.

It was actually hack. He screwed over the entire html of pages and made them all black and posted the Zodiac killer symbol all over.
