Hacked

Barracuda Babes is a member of a group of bloggers known as the Read My Lipstick Network. We are all pro-Palin, pro-McCain bloggers.

We have a blogroll through a free service along with many, many other groups. It's a freebie that's just a nice service by someone who took the time to help out loads of bloggers.

A group calling themselves "İsLaMİ cİhAD" hacked the site sometime in the night or early morning taking all the blog rolls through the service down.

The service is open to all across the world and it doesn't have any political affiliations so this isn't something I'd think was targeted at Republican blogs, but I don't know one way or the other. It's possible the group went to a site, didn't like the blog and so decided to take down the service.

The name is interesting to say the least. Is this a group of kids who just took a controversial name? or is it a group of Islamic cyber terrorists out to take down blogs around the country? It doesn't really make much of a difference on the user end because down is down regardless of the motivation of the hackers.
