The official website for the US Public Broadcasting Service has been hacked into with the hackers publishing a story (which was finally taken down as this post was being written) about the deceased rappers Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls both being alive and hiding in New Zealand. As silly as that sounds, the hackers have also leaked email addresses and passwords for tons of employees as well as an SQL database with information on a large part of the site.
The hackers appear to be from the same group, Lulz Security, that attacked Fox Network at the beginning of this month releasing information about their employees as well as potential contestants for the upcoming American version of X-Factor. The group took credit with an image they put up on PBS’s site under the url “http://www.pbs.org/lulz/.”
