What Happened?

Today we were informed by our host, "Hostgator" that we were the subject of a DOS attack which crashed the shared server we were on. We know that this was in relation to our hosting of the Obama Wants to Disarm America video.

In fact we are sure this is what has been happening ever since Feb when we first put the video up on the web. Whomever is doing this needs to know that the video has already been viewed 2 1/2 million times from our blog as well as another 2 million times from Youtube, so trying to knock it off the web is futile.

Additionally we were able to gain the identity of the perp who began the attack and contacted the FBI in Miami and they are actively investigating it. Once the subject is in custody I will initiating civil action against him and the company he works for where the hack originated.

Consequently we had to find a new home for Macsmind, and are working to get the site back up on their considerably more secure servers. In the meantime I will have to be blogging here the old Macsmind.
