Tons of snow out there. Took me an hour and a half to get home from work – that’s outrageous considering my home and my place of work is in the same city.
I was checking up on my blog yesterday and found these strange advertisements half hiding underneath the images in my posts – mostly pharmaceutical ads. I freaked out a little bit but then calmed down and started investigating. Sure enough, I had somehow been hacked – a ‘Pharma hack’ script had been injected into my source code. Impressive yet completely mortifying. WordPress security has failed me. Worst of all is that I just don’t understand how companies could actually convince themselves that hacking and invasively planting ads of their products on people’s blogs is an effective (nevermind ethical) way of conducting business. It’s just absolutely bizarre.
