UFC president Dana White responded to last weekend's hacking of UFC.com by hackers apparently unrelated to Anonymous by calling out the hacker organization and daring them to attack the UFC again. Careful what you wish for. We posted last night on Dana White's personal information being posted on the Internet by hackers. The attacks were ramped up over night with UFC.tv being defaced after White's Twitter beef with Anonymous members.
Anonymous members @YourAnonNews announced the attacks on Twitter and followed up with taunts:
@YourAnonNews
Anonymous Answering @danawhite's challenge today, UFC's site has been hacked - stay tuned, we hear moar lulz are on the way. #OpUFC

They also posted a video summarizing last night's attacks, that's after the jump.
This morning, S3rver.exe, the hacker who not long ago breached Sony Pictures and who's currently helping out Anonymous hackers, along with others, breached UFC.com and UFC.tv, defacing some of their webpages.
"I hacked those 2 sites this morning. One of them has 60+ vulnerabilities and ufc.tv has XSS, BlindSQL Injection and other vulnerabilities," the hacker said.

Bloody Elbow is turning into a teenager/young adult site with terrible memes and unoriginal posts and pics.
This isn’t Reddit. Please, please keep the shittyness where it belongs – not here.

It’s a thread about Dana vs. The Interwebs. The meme/gifs were going to happen in this thread. Don’t hate fun, we don’t get to meme out very often on this site.
Patrick Tenney - January 27, 2012
This is an asinine opinion of Reddit. There is plenty more to that site than memes and whatever other “shittyness” you claim. Neil Degasse Tyson held a Q&A on it just last month, and I’m pretty sure he doesn’t qualify as a teenager/young adult.

Dude,
My cousin and I used to go to Burning Man and set up an oasis themed dome and give away free frozen Margaritas. last time we went we gave away around four thousand frozen margs and around a thousand shots. Anyways, we had this sweet camp, when all of a sudden who parks next to us on day one? Twenty Dub Step DJs from LA! The nightmares still persist. Every night they would all go out and beg to DJ people’s parties. The following would happen. we’d have like 40 people hanging out drinking listening to the CD of chill music. They would get their laptop out, plug into the PA, turn the volume up so high that no one could talk, then press play or whatever dub step dj’s do and then the people would leave. Soon, It’s me and him and he goes, “great party, but there’s noone here, I gotta jet. Peace.” Bang party over. So lame.

Not risking it.
Fuck UFC.tv forever. I’m not ever paying for that service after this. Ever.
Unabomberman - January 27, 2012
Doesn't Yahoo have a stream, too?
I mean, if you insist on paying for UFC on the internet, it seems like Yahoo would be a viable alternative, and much more secure than the UFC’s lone website.

Dave Strummer - January 27, 2012
I think it’s a good way to show the people who attempt to regulate the Internet that they haven’t got the slightest clue what they’re doing. They’ll never win.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
I disagree
What really raised awareness about SOPA were all the legitimate, non-anonymous protests (like the Wikipedia blackout). Not a bunch of people defacing Web sites. Also SOPA is now off the table, so what are they protesting exactly?
Also, as someone who works on these issues, I’m here to tell you that the Internet is already regulated, and has always been regulated. The whole Internet started as a U.S. Government project funded by the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency. Before it was the Internet, it was the DARPAnet. It’s regulated by hundreds of different agencies, multi-stakeholder organizations and governments around the world. And some of those regulations have actually helped to spur its growth. The Internet isn’t some magical unicorn that exists outside of the rule of law.
SOPA and PIPA weren’t good bills, but they were trying to address a legitimate problem, and they are neither the first, nor will they be the last legislative efforts to limit illegal activity online.
Dave Strummer - January 27, 2012
The blackouts raised awareness to the common person. I’m talking about sending a message to those who regulate the Internet, which means I’m obviously aware there are numerous groups who already do so. But it’s futile. For every encryption, there’s a decryption. For every will, there’s a way.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
Again
I think that’s Internet utopia feel-good talk. Ask the Chinese people how effective Internet regulation can be. The Internet that we know and love is as much a result of thoughtful legal and regulatory decisions (and in some cases, hard fought court battles) as it is the result of engineering.
The answer is not for the government to just “leave the Internet alone,” it’s for policymakers to understand what they’re trying to regulate, and to proceed in a way that respects the Internet’s core values.
Dave Strummer - January 27, 2012
Hm… Ok, I’m not suggesting that the government not interfere with the Internet… But sometimes I wonder about the type of people who are making the decisions. For instance, the guy who wrote SOPA isn’t exactly the most tech-savvy guy. I feel like the Internet is a new beast that the last generation doesn’t know how to properly control.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
well the guy(s) who wrote SOPA
weren’t elected officials, but a mixture of staffers and copyright lobbyists, who then got friendly lawmakers to carry their water. Point taken though. More education throughout Congress about the Internet would help.
Dave Strummer - January 27, 2012
I thought they credited Harry Reid for it, although I know it wouldn’t have just been him writing that massive thing.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
I'd rather our legislative bodies didn't mangle the internet.
If they could intelligently tackle the piracy issue, I’d be all for it, but the nature of the system all but ensures that won’t happen.
And how big of an issue is piracy, really? How much damage does it really do to the economy, and the entertainment industry? Entertainment companies should be working on finding better ways to distribute content online, and better serve their customers in the process, rather than clinging to their old ways and trying to bend the web to their will.
lolumad - January 27, 2012
Harry Reid wouldn't know SOPA from Soup. He's an old narcissistic idiot whose only claim to fame is his bad hair cut and Vegas lifestyle.
Its his staffers that need bitchslapping.
dandeman - January 27, 2012

I am pretty sure some “thinktank” drafted that legislation, funded by the MPAA or whatever.

SOPA and PIPA were great distractions. and they arent “off” any table. just on the side.
silent.bisonte33 - January 27, 2012
They are effectively off the table
in that they won’t come back in the same form. The copyright people will come back with something, but it won’t be the same bills they just lost on.
Dave Strummer - January 27, 2012
This wasn’t about SOPA, this was abut Dana bringing Anon’s name into a situation they weren’t a part of and then calling them terrorists. AND THEN daring them to hack the UFC’s shit.
Massive amount of irresponsibility by Dana
Brent Brookhouse - January 27, 2012
The initial take-down of the UFC’s site was in response to their support for SOPA was it not?
RagingBronco - January 27, 2012
That was. And was reasonably minor. It was a “hey, don’t support SOPA” thing. Then Dana got all puffy chested with the people who did it, so they did the thing with releasing all of his personal info.
But before that even happened Dana brought Anon into the picture out of nowhere and then challenged them with “I’m not afraid of you, you don’t fucking scare me, you come in and do your thing, you don’t scare me.”
Brent Brookhouse - January 27, 2012

Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
I can't find any mistake.
If you think using ‘he’ instead of ‘him’ was wrong, I dunno why it would be. It kinda seems correct in the same way as when saying “It is I” instead of “it is me.”
Unabomberman - January 27, 2012
I thought it should be rewritten...
“statement from another Zuffa representative or him” rather than “he or another Zuffa representative”. Idk. That always confuses me.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
…“from himself, or another Zuffa representative.”
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
It looks perfectly correct to me.
maybe this will assuage your growing annoyment [sic?]: "A statement from another Zuffa representative , or him."
Unabomberman - January 27, 2012
“annoyment” is legit there.
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
I put rewritten instead of rewrote in my last comment anyways.

As out of hand this is getting, it sure raises awareness. But it also fuels the fire for a restrictive Internet.

are going to ruin these comment threads, because it will allow them to shut bloodyelbow down when we post gif’s and jpegs we love. because thats piracy to them.

halitosis - January 27, 2012
Those dudes who get brought in for little pay to be stepping stones for up-and-comers.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
little pay being more money than they can get anywhere else that and also a number that they agreed to is being exploited?
Phildo - January 27, 2012
Well, I didn't say regional promotions didn't exploit their employees, they're way worse.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
Still don’t see how that means the UFC is exploiting anyone.
Phildo - January 27, 2012
Idk, I just think it’s kinda shitty to bring a guy in against huge competition, pay him little, and then cut him when he loses. Not that big of a deal on the whole spectrum of problems with MMA though.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
what is shitty about it? He gets a nice payday, and instead of being dragged along with a UFC contract and no fights he gets to go back to the minor leagues calling himself an ex-UFC fighter. It says right on the contract that you can be cut if you lose, and I’m sure these people know what they’re getting in to.
Phildo - January 27, 2012
Well he didn’t get a fair chance to advance his career by facing someone who would be a competitive fight. I guess it’s not so much about the money, but using a fighter as a body to get pummeled by a guy you hope will make you lots of money in the long-term just seems… Not nice? Idk. Smart business practice though, I understand why it’s done, I’m just speaking from a moral sense.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
I might just be having trouble because I can’t think of anyone you are talking about, but it’s still not exploitation. If the fighter didn’t want to do that, he could say no. When he gets the fight offer, he has to weigh the options. What’s better for my career, stay here in the minor leagues and wait for the UFC to give me a fair shot, or go take this shot, take the big payday, make the UFC happy by being a good soldier so they’ll call me again, and then use the exposure to further my career.
It’s also definitely not exploitation because there’s no way the UFC comes close to generating their purse from them if they fit your definition.
Phildo - January 27, 2012
You're right.
I can’t really think of too many examples and I’m the one arguing it… I guess McKee was kind of an example, but I find that funny since he blames everything on racism. And since he just got cut from the MFC for missing weight.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
seriously, McKee? Volkmann was some sort of crusher designed to ruin McKee’s career? the guy who spent years calling out BJ Penn?
Phildo - January 27, 2012
Oh. No I meant he was one-and-done, and not paid very much. While Volkmann was a nobody as well, Mckee was on the wrong side of 40 and I think everyone knew he wasn’t going to be a long-term commodity. My bad.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
When was the last time the UFC really brought a guy in to lose?
Paulo Thiago comes to mind, and we all know how that turned out.
Vary rarely does the ufc match fighters so one is a virtual lock….
So its rare that fighters are one and done in the UFC now a days

Even if you allow yourself to be exploited
it doesn’t change the fact that you’re being exploited.
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
I'm on your side.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
wrong!
acceptance of exploitation immediately renders the exploitation null and void. once free will and choice come into play i just can’t except it being thought of as exploitation.
F'n Clownshoes - January 27, 2012
There’s nothing in the definition of “exploitation” that supports that view. It can be “selfish utilization”, but that doesn’t imply that a person who accepts that they’re being utilized selfishly isn’t still being exploited.
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
fine
but once you allow yourself to be exploited aren’t you changing the original concept of being exploited.
F'n Clownshoes - January 27, 2012
Nope.
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
educate me.
i’m not trying to be a dick either. how can one who accepts and uses the fact that they are being exploited for their own gains still be considered being exploited?
F'n Clownshoes - January 27, 2012
Because exploitation, by definition, is a function of the exploiter, not the exploited.
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
It would seem that accepting exploitation would change the ethics of the situation, but the exploiting party is still doing it for the same reason, so it doesn’t.
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
i see it now
thanks for breaking it down for me.
i can understand the precise definition a little more clearly.
now i just realised how much of the working world is being exploited and how much i’m exploiting my employees……i guess i’m just lucky that they are being happily exploited.

Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
Exploitation isn’t necessarily “wrong or right”, it’s just a term to describe a relationship that tends to involve one party disproportionately benefiting over the other. As you pointed out, it happens all over the world all the time. The ethics involved depend in the specific situation.
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
*on
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
it relates to categories
of power, mostly, which relate also to race, socio-economic class, and gender.
Let’s say you live in a society which has limited upward mobility and not many opportunities for people of a certain gender or race. You are poor and want to be able to buy better clothes. There is a drug company which offers money for medical testing drugs on humans. You accept, because money is the way to accrue what you want, although relative to what the drug company owners get out of your efforts, it is a pittance. So you make a deal of your own cognizance, and get paid, but are physically damaged from the experience. The drug company pays you what you agreed to, and makes a lot of money.
On the surface, it was an agreed to deal by both parties. Sound fair? But due to the categories each party belongs to, and the history of power relations contained therein, there is an inherent inequality before any deal is made which applies pressure on one party that is not present for the other. Hence, the poor person may voluntarily undergo the testing, but the position I (and many others) take is that there isn’t any possibility of a fair deal under these circumstances even if the person beg to have medicine injected into them for the paycheck.
While the example is much more direct, if you are a fighter attempting to cross the threshold into the upper echelons, a passage that requires money to access the training, health insurance, and other resources needed to make the transition from amateur to pro, you may feel that not accepting the relatively low payment will prevent you from competing. This applies a pressure on the fighter that is not present for the UFC. You may, in fact, be unqualified to fight, but the UFC knows you will do it anyways even at the risk of serious injury. This is another pressure.
Now if you are a mediocre amateur, and they want you to be a can for some good fighter coming back from injury needing a tune up, and they say you can fight for 5 grand. The other fighter will make 50k, and the UFC will presumably make much more (although it would be difficult to determine exactly). You don’t have to take the fight, it may not be in your best interest, but you may feel pressured to take the opportunity now. I would argue that there is an intrinsically exploitive quality to that relationship, even before you get into institutional issues like race and class which overlay the basic example. I also don’t know the solution except that there be some rule that there is a limit to the disparity of fighter pay in any single event.
DankNabbot - January 27, 2012
yeah
I should have read through that, but there’s no edit function. Sorry, I would have structured it better, I am supposed to be doing homework and posted too fast, but I think the gist is there. Wall of text FTW!
DankNabbot - January 27, 2012
So basically you think economic exploitation is something that exclusively happens to slaves?
Bolshevik - January 27, 2012
Wait, you mean those dude who willingly signed a contract for some mainstream exposure and a decent paycheck.
TOTALLY exploited.
McKinley B. Noble - January 27, 2012
Most fighters believe they can beat anyone. They have to have that mentality to be successful…
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
Remember Fedor?
He was confident but he never said anything about whether or not he would win his next fight, or anything like that. Also, the Diaz bros never really come up with predictions like that, either.
Unabomberman - January 27, 2012
are they able to form complete sentences yet?
mollcutpurse - January 27, 2012
Plenty, actually.
Are you able to comprehend spoken word?
I keed, I keed.
Unabomberman - January 27, 2012
I watched UFC Primetime and Cesar Gracie says you’re an asshole for that comment :P
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
That's why I said most fighters, and "believe" rather than say.
Idk, I wouldn’t want to come into a fight with the mentality that I might get shitkicked. Seems like that wouldn’t do any favors in the fight, you’d be reluctant, hesitant, etc.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
A lot of fighters say “if you think you might lose, you’ve already lost.” It’s also that “I’m not going to worry about what he’s going to do, just what I’m going to do,” mentality. It’s all about focusing on what YOU have to get done in the cage.
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
"I’m not going to worry about what he’s going to do, just what I’m going to do."
What about counterstrikers?
Unabomberman - January 27, 2012
Patrick Tenney - January 27, 2012
lol whag the fuck...
Hiring someone to wilingly do a job, that they signed a congract for, is exploiting them?
Fedorable - January 27, 2012 via mobile
I tried to elaborate.
This whole thing was me just trying to come up with an example to the question in the first place… I’m not on a crusade for fighter’s rights or anything. In fact I was arguing with all the people who were against the current fighter pay last week.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
Shh
Ur dumb exploiting point is stupid shut up.
LuvinMMA - January 27, 2012 via mobile
It can be. “Exploitation” has three meanings, and none of them are nullified by the exploited party’s acceptance of the exploitation.
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
I don’t know man, your using litteral definitions of the word “exploitation”.
What I should say, and I think most people would probably agree, is that its tough to look at a fighter who is getting a chance to fight on the biggest stage of the sport , and getting paid an agreed upon amout, and feel sorry for them. Especially when the UFC almost never fires fighters after 1 loss…
Fedorable - January 27, 2012 via mobile
Chance
They are getting a chance to prove themselves….whats there to be sorry bout….some of u guys are too emo for this sport or something….wah wah guys get cut time to shed some tears for them….
LuvinMMA - January 27, 2012 via mobile
Example: Migrant farm workers are exploited, i.e. they do the same work as others for less pay (the employer is exploiting their situation as illegal immigrants, desperation for money, etc.). They know it, and accept it, but they are still being exploited.
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
yes.
that is why unions came to be.
Body Triangle - January 27, 2012
I'm glad the first post in this was about Dubstep.
I don’t agree with the way Anonymous goes about this stuff and now I can honestly say that I hate them because of the shit dubstep.
Hart Thorson - January 27, 2012
It's pretty scary
that this shit is for real.
fhitshaced - January 27, 2012
now might be the time for Dana to tap out
If I had personal info with the UFC, i’d be concerned.

Weren't these the guys

I guess UFC.TV was the 98 pound guy in the back that was the easier target…
Dootch - January 27, 2012
I asked Matt Roth and Luke Thomas this but I’m sure they’re too busy stacking cheddar so I won’t fault them for not answering but:
With all this going on, when we watch these UFC fights by any means, are WE supporting SOPA because we are watching a product run by a company that wants it to be closely monitored?
Krimson - January 27, 2012 via mobile
No.
YPG - January 27, 2012
According to Dana White, these guys are the same as the Muslim zealot bastards who blew up women and kids in New York and London. Greed really can cloud judgment!
sheikybaby - January 27, 2012
Not all terrorists are Muslim, not all Muslims are terrorists
Before 9/11 the biggest terrorist concern in the US was domestic terrorists.
menckenstein - January 27, 2012
Most of them are.
RagingBronco - January 27, 2012
Non sequitur.
‘Muslim zealot bastards who blew up women and kids’ are terrorists.
DFW says Anon are terrorists.
DFW says Anon are = ‘Muslim zealot bastards who blew up women and kids’
Sheikybaby just repeated ridiculous statement from DFW. menckenstein should not have attempted a clarification/correction.
cardioless - January 27, 2012
What you just wrote is so stupid it makes my teeth hurt
ter·ror·ism   /ˈtɛrəˌrɪzəm/ Show Spelled[ter-uh-riz-uhm]
noun
1. the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce, especially for political purposes.
2. the state of fear and submission produced by terrorism or terrorization.
3. a terroristic method of governing or of resisting a government.
menckenstein - January 27, 2012
hmmm
seems to apply to a lot of governments (esp 1.) but I suspect coercion in the name of the law presupposes its own process of legitimisation that disconnects itself from its political roots (at least in the mind of the state).
rohedron - January 27, 2012
actually no
In a new interview with Mauro, Dana actually compares the hacking stuff to 9/11.
http://ironforgesiron.com/2012/01/video-mauro-ranallo-interviews-dana-white-compares-hacking-to-911/
Rob Young - January 27, 2012
don't even get me started
on US support for Irish terrorrists, and how some of those same politicians who raised money for the IRA are now on the anti-terrorrist bandwagon.
DankNabbot - January 27, 2012
Perhaps not the same...
but after this, how can you not label Anonymous as terrorists? You better not disagree with them on anything, for risk of them interfering with your livelihood and invading your privacy.
Ogueira - January 27, 2012
Under that criteria, pretty much every alphabet agency in the Federal Gubmint are terrorists. Google MIAC Report…
Mr. Socko - January 27, 2012 via mobile
Will do. In the meantime, Google “terrorist”
Ogueira - January 27, 2012
a person who terrorizes or frightens others.
cardioless - January 27, 2012
So ghosts are terrorists?
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
Well, they aren't people...
But parents are and police are…
(I’m with you Zach, btw)
cardioless - January 27, 2012
hahaha
sweet….
rohedron - January 27, 2012
Mr. Socko is right! (blazing saddles ref)
Just about to say that. If using fear to adjust behavior is terrorism, our entire society is illegitimate.
Why, Dana is a terrorist for trying to scare Anon with talk of reviving SOPA!!!!
Perspective on both sides is lacking in conflict.
cardioless - January 27, 2012
The proposition that “using fear to adjust behavior is terrorism” is far more broad than the statement I made, which merely suggested that retaliation for a mere disagreement qualifies someone as a terrorist. If the government is doing the latter, then, yeah, I think that can be labeled as terrorism (it’s obviously a violation of the First Amendment).
Dana White throwing his support behind SOPA is completely different from Anonymous hacking web sites and invading someone’s privacy. Supporting legislation is hardly a scare tactic; hacking and invading privacy is.
Ogueira - January 27, 2012
Actually...
you said ‘better not disagree with them on anything’. Anon won’t attack for just disagreeing. Dana supports SOPA, and therefore is attempting to change policy. So is Anon. Not to mention… he asked for it. Literally. Right or wrong, he teased the hornet’s nest.
cardioless - January 27, 2012
Point taken.
Though, again, supporting SOPA on one hand, and someone hacking someone’s web site and posting personal information because of that person’s support of particular legislation on the other hand, are still – at least in my mind – completely different things. One is supported by the freedom of speech, the other is certainly not. in fact, it’s a hindrance to the freedom of speech (notwithstanding the fact that SOPA itself would in effect be a hindrance to freedom of speech, but that’s a whole other argument).
The fact that Dana asked for it – yeah, I agree, that was dumb. But doesn’t make what they did right – I don’t see what point they were trying to prove, other than flexing their muscle to keep Dana from talking.
Ogueira - January 27, 2012
Yo
Dana support SOPA because it helps the UFC what u want him to say bout it. Im sure he doesnt give a shit bout the music and movies we all download jus UFC. I like Dana cuz he aint a pussy like half u guys are all happy that anon hacks peoples info
LuvinMMA - January 27, 2012 via mobile
I also like Dana cuz he aint a pussy and all of us are just pussies who are also keyboard warriors and we wudnt do as good as him and if we are happy anon hacks people then we dont like the UFC.
wonderfulspam - January 27, 2012
Psh
Of course people without businesses dont feel sympathy….lets seee I own a business ….so let people get my shit free while I lose money…..sounds fun right? we all do our fair share of illegal shit..but I think we still have to understand where people are coming from
LuvinMMA - January 27, 2012 via mobile
Please god tell me your business doesn’t have anything to do with administering standardized tests for spelling.

mollcutpurse - January 27, 2012
Nice. Very nice.
Patrick Tenney - January 27, 2012
And leaders of businesses should know what they are publicly supporting or opposing. Just research what happened when GoDaddy publicly opposed SOPA. Or call me stupid again. Either way.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
These guys are terrorists by the very definition….they are trying to intimidate others for a political purpose. They are just using a computer instead of a bomb…both can hurt innocent people along the way.
The fact the think they are justified because of a difference of opinion over supporting a bill or not just shows how clouded their judgement really is.
rtwil - January 27, 2012
Terrorists always think they’re justified. That’s kind of the point.
crazybones - January 27, 2012
Using terror tactics makes you a terrorist.
Warbreezy - January 27, 2012
Like the US government? Like the Iranian government? Like the Israeli government? Like the Mexican government?
Like that?
Unabomberman - January 27, 2012
Yeah, pretty much.
Warbreezy - January 27, 2012
Okay, then.
Unabomberman - January 27, 2012
I would say that...
Terrorism is when non state actors use violence and threats of violence to advance a political agenda.
Ubernoober - January 27, 2012
against non-military targets
DankNabbot - January 27, 2012
Terrorists can attack military targets.
Ubernoober - January 27, 2012
But they usually don't
cuz they get face fucked.
RolloTomasi - January 27, 2012
its absurd that the definition of terrorism
was expanded to include attacks on military targets.
The Lethal Haze - January 27, 2012
What about when a terrortist cell attacks a military target as a means of exerting pressure on a civilian population?
Ubernoober - January 27, 2012
what about CIA attacks on foreign governments and militaries
using local assets from the foreign country they are undermining? Is that terrorism too?
Were the Vietcong terrorists for fighting against the American military and attempting to make America leave their country? Were they trying to “terrorize” the US population into voting in a President that would end Vietnam?
No, those are covert and overt acts of war. Not terrorism. Attacks on civilians are terrorism. Attacks on military targets is war.
The Lethal Haze - January 27, 2012
Key phrase ^^^^^
RolloTomasi - January 27, 2012
While I think this conversation is pretty useless on an MMA thread, :)
I think that an action against a military target is not terrorism, it falls under gorilla warfare, regardless of whether or not the group is recognized as a formal military by the military target. Terrorism is a political term deployed for political reasons, and just because we assign that label to a group does not mean that they then assume all the parameters of the word that we imbue it with. The relationship between signifier and signified is arbitrary. Did I just break out Saussure in an MMA thread? Yes, yes I did. You’re welcome BE.
DankNabbot - January 28, 2012
Oh look, someone who doesn't know what the word terrorist means
sklart - January 27, 2012
All we need now is another improper reference to the First Amendment
MemphisMike - January 27, 2012
FREEDOM OF SPEECH...'MURICA!!!!
Dabashire - January 27, 2012
I can sort of sympathize with what you’re saying because the term “terrorist” is applied so inconsistently in cases like this. It is intimidation for political goals, but not everybody doing stuff like that gets labeled a terrorist, which makes it seem harsh here even though it’s fair.
Bolshevik - January 27, 2012
I like that your BE handle is so consistent with the tenor of your comments.
crazybones - January 27, 2012
Um
Im sure terrorist dont have to blow stuff up to be called terrorist…. Its watever fear they can spark to the pubiic…some hackers are terrorist….theh got info u dont want millions of people to kno and u cant stop them for shit.

sexysassytravismmafan - January 27, 2012
As to what? The lack of security measures every website seems to have?
RagingBronco - January 27, 2012
No, that doesn’t surprise me at all. I’m actually surprised that the UFC is able to restore its sites as fast as it is. I’ve been unable to witness the hack myself.
“I hacked those 2 sites this morning. One of them has 60+ vulnerabilities and ufc.tv has XSS, BlindSQL Injection and other vulnerabilities,” the hacker said.
I’m surprised there were only 60.
sexysassytravismmafan - January 27, 2012
Im a IT guy...
I think that Anon is not to be Effed with… they will and can pretty much hack into any where… What people dont know is that you can google how to hack sites and you would be surprised just how easily it is… Obviously some site are way easier to hack as they lack security or monitoring. Hopefully Dana understands who he is dealing with and makes amends..
Fokman - January 27, 2012
NOT THE PRECIOUS GLOSSARY!!!!!
sklart - January 27, 2012
Challenging anon like this is fucking stupidity. Dana needs to know when to quit.
nastyem - January 27, 2012
Aren’t these hackers proving right those that say that the internet should be better controlled? Just askin’….
Shnak - January 27, 2012
While I wouldn't support SOPA...
I think you’re right. At the very least, it makes these hackers look no better off than the government regulations that they’re protesting. Both, the government and the hackers, are looking to govern the internet by making everyone else afraid to cross them.
Ogueira - January 27, 2012
The thing is...
SOPA won’’t control the internet… That’s what the average person should be getting from these hacks.
If SOPA is passed than all the stuff people like me and you enjoy is controlled, but the people who don’t follow the law are unaffected.
‘Only outlaws have guns in a gunless society’ type thing.
cardioless - January 27, 2012
I believe someone created a Firefox plug-in within days that would bypass any sites blocked by the government by SOPA.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
Exactly...
Pointless growing of the regulations and govt. Won’t solve the problems, will actually make them worse, and will foster lack of understanding on all sides.
cardioless - January 27, 2012
A VPN for $5 a month would make it 100% impossible for the government/ISPs to monitor large scale traffic
Ask the Chinese, they don’t really care about the Great Firewall (I know because I lived there for awhile). Anyone smart enough to torrent or what have you (which is a low bar) is smart enough to instantly beat any of this crap.
joker24 - January 27, 2012
*not that I support SOPA or anything, it's ridiculous
joker24 - January 27, 2012
We only briefly touched on VPNs in my education, unfortunately.
I definitely saw how beneficial they were though.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
Well
You connect to a server that fetches the content, then that server sends it to you in encrypted form. So it effectively turns all your internet traffic into 128-bit (or more!) encrypted gobbledygook to the ISP—-it makes it pretty damn hard to crack one person’s traffic, let alone the passive monitoring of everyone’s traffic. And using one is as simple as downloading one of a thousand plug and play programs.
You can’t ban the practice because it’s critically important to business users, and at best you could play whack a mole with some servers. No matter how much authority SOPA would actually give the US Government, I severely doubt they would be anywhere near as aggressive in internet monitoring as the Chinese, and like I said they can’t do dick about VPNs.

Seriously though, Dana, don’t pick a fight with hackers. That little bit of info the leaked, is only the tip of the iceberg. He should stop, and let lawmakers fight this battle

I only remember him doing that once in his entire career as president, to the LGBT society.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
Personally I'd be more afraid of anonymous
Than the lgbt community, esp when more UFC fans appreciate the antics of anonymous than the queer community.
Armleglegarm Head - January 27, 2012 via mobile
Nope
He apologized to me, too.

mollcutpurse - January 27, 2012
Machiel Van - January 27, 2012
You know whats terrifying? Dana’s net worth is est. @ 150mil… He lives in a digital world. I’m sure he is well aware of online attacks & i’m willing to bet he paid for some top notch personal security software in case something happened and he probably thought he was protected or that the gov’t would have his back.
and look how long it took for some “fat nerdy hacker virgin kid” to really fuck some shit up.
the scary part is? anon has reached a level where it won’t ever stop. There is no “taking them down” there is no real central leadership.
Nathan Eli - January 27, 2012

I was going to ask why Panera, then I realized meeting at Pinkberry's doesn't exactly come across as tough.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
does Dana think going on twitter to debate these guys will make a difference?
what is the point of him acting “tough”, challenging them to hack the website again (putting other peoples personal info at risk) and antagonizing them further?
he needs to shut up and let law enforcement that specializes in cyberattacks deal with this.
and mind you, my comments are not an endorsement of SOPA

Its just twitter….would u be a bitch and not respond to someone? Pretty much jus texting. shows that dana doesnt sit on his ass doing research bout jack groups all day. Im sure dana was expecting tem to redirect the site again not let loose a bomb
LuvinMMA - January 27, 2012 via mobile
thank you dana
for putting all our credit card information at risk by deliberately and profitlessly baiting extremely sensitive and touchy criminals (or “activists”, whatever – I mean “criminal” in the non-perjorative sense of “someone who breaks the law”).
for all his gifts fundamentally this guy is an idiot. what is the BEST CASE SCENARIO of calling out anonymous?
Clifford J - January 27, 2012
best case scenario:
they steal all of your videos, watch them, become huge MMA fans, study martial arts for ten years, and show up at your house, roided the fuck out, rocking a Guy Fawkes mask.
mollcutpurse - January 27, 2012
well thanks a lot
now i crapped my pants at work.
Clifford J - January 27, 2012
Thank god I bought that SAFTA VHS from that Greg "Ranger" Stott's garage sale
Now I just need some S-Mass Lean Gainer…
menckenstein - January 27, 2012
What a bunch of pathetic losers. Sad statement about them, imo.
BJJDenver - January 27, 2012
What?
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
I don't think he could have said it any clearer
Joben - January 27, 2012
I couldn’t figure out if he was caling Anonymous pathetic losers and referring to some statement about them that I couldn’t identify…
Or if the pathetic losers was the sad statement about them.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
Well I think it is pretty clear
I’m not commenting on any of these stories. I don’t want my shit hacked. I’ll be on deck waiting for the fights tonight.
Joben - January 27, 2012
Fights... Tonight?
I’m too cool to watch non-UFC events, what are you talking about?
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
MFC tonight at 10:00 on HDNet
Joben - January 27, 2012
Lol, that guy who luvs mma is right, I am stupid. I just mentioned about McKee missing weight in this same comment section. …sigh
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
I dont care bout shitty fighters sorry. u act like mckee even matters in mma
LuvinMMA - January 27, 2012 via mobile
Oh?
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
Dana obviously have no f…..g idea what he just got himself into. First saying that he dont give a f..k about UFC.com being hacked. WTF, are you kidding me? Many people, including myself, buy his shit and have our credit info there, and he dont give a rats ass about that?
What a fool!
Then he challenge them, hahahaaa……
Hes gonna regret all the shit he said, BIG TIME!
SOPA sucks, and so do Dana in this case.
Information is power…
IronHelmet - January 27, 2012
To his credit
He was aware that they hadn’t (originally) hacked the site as such, merely tampered with the DNS, hence the “who gives a shit”.
Challenging them was monumentally stupid, though.
wonderfulspam - January 27, 2012
Okay, i didnt know that. But it still shows just how ignorant and stupid he is. He never thinks before he talks. This time its gonna cost him dearly.
He has no idea what these cool guys are capable of.
All his childish toughman bullshit talk wont get him anywhere.
IronHelmet - January 27, 2012
Cool guys?
LuvinMMA - January 27, 2012 via mobile
Hacking UFC.TV is kind of a big deal
If they Ddos the site just before a PPV or just redirect it. The UFC will lose money since people will be denied access
IRodC - January 27, 2012
Dissapointed. Hacking doesn't look nearly as exciting as movies make it out to be.

HACK THE PLANET!
Chris Barton - January 27, 2012
Dana seems to have gone a bit mad
Even for him. In that interview with Ariel Helwani he was being really mean to the internet in general. He’s spent the last few days having a go at anonymous even though they weren’t the UFC’s original attackers. I’m not saying it’s OK to hack people’s websites every time they annoy you, but Dana was pretty silly to annoy people who could attack his website, especially since there was nothing to be gained from it.
jim-ma - January 27, 2012
He's just not wired for subtlety.
And it’s his achilles heel. His rant against the internet to Helwani was so cringe-worthy that I simply couldn’t watch it. It was like watching Noguiera looking at his gruesome broken appendage — almost unbearable. That said, he and his business have a right in a democracy to support legislation that will boost their business without taking poison arrows from a group of extremely self-righteous hackers with delusions of grandeur. In his current role as president of the UFC, is it reasonable to expect him to care about collateral damage here? He’s all about making money for his business and, thereby, his fighters. Anon will begin to lose the public opinion the second they damage the fan’s experience of the UFC’s product. Hopefully they don’t attempt to go that far. But with White challenging them with his nearly incoherent bravado, who the hell knows?
Charlie Custer - January 27, 2012
Pretty sure
The public don’t support people who lobby in favour of laws that restrict their freedom purely for money. That sounds like a baddie to me.
jim-ma - January 27, 2012
Well, the legislation he supported was killed.
I don’t argue with Zuffa’s right to advocate for their business, just as I don’t argue with someone who takes the other side. Perhaps the public good was protected with the defeat of SOPA, but Zuffa will still be leaking valuable content due to ever increasing internet piracy, and they will and should continue to look for ways to address it. As you know, in most societies — to say nothing of one as cryptic as the internet — honor systems just aren’t enough.
Charlie Custer - January 27, 2012

They've been using it for years
much longer than SOPA has been around.

I know
But now it’s just extra ironic and hilarious.
menckenstein - January 27, 2012
I think I know where they took this picture
av1o3 - January 27, 2012
It's stupid, yeah
But I’m pretty sure half the people that use it don’t know about Guy Fawkes, and 100% of the people that use it do it because of Alan Moore
IRodC - January 27, 2012
Because of the feature film
I don’t think most of Anonymous are old enough to have enjoyed the
comic bookgraphic novel before the movie came out and made it relevant again.menckenstein - January 27, 2012
The ones that go out in public are probably kids... like the kid who gets shot in the movie.

It's hilarious

I think irony is part of the point?
Patrick Tenney - January 27, 2012
Doubtful
I thought so at first but then after witnessing everything unfold these past couple of years I realize they just think it’s a cool, badass, anti-whatever the fuck icon.
menckenstein - January 27, 2012
Fair enough, I mean the overarching point is that there’s no overarching point in the end though. Kind of the charm of Anonymous, the chaos of mass motherfuckery.
Patrick Tenney - January 27, 2012
A Guy Fawkes mask in every drawer
A Che Guevara shirt in every closet.
menckenstein - January 27, 2012
An XKCD poster on every wall
mollcutpurse - January 27, 2012
is it ironic that the mask as it's being used now.....
is much cooler then when they used it in that God Awful movie?
F'n Clownshoes - January 27, 2012
I don't know about "much cooler"
The people in the movies all had the full outfit, these guys are strolling around in what mom nabbed at KMart on blue light special.
Movie was god awful though, yeah.
menckenstein - January 27, 2012
i should have said cooler in application
not in ascetics
F'n Clownshoes - January 27, 2012

RolloTomasi - January 27, 2012
I am of a different opinion
Mostly for Zach Braff being in it.
menckenstein - January 27, 2012
replace him with Chael Sonnen
mollcutpurse - January 27, 2012
Only if Zach Braff gets beat up by Michael Bisping as a result
menckenstein - January 27, 2012
I could see that happening.
PillowFists McTeaTime couldn’t ko Braff.

menckenstein - January 27, 2012
I like it.
Who will direct?
I have some stipulation.
I need to do AT LEAST 4 full frontal scenes with Ms. Portman.
I need the cast and crew to refer to me as C-Dawg, and AT NO TIME is anyone not in the cast allowed to look me in the eye.
If you can meet my demands we can work together.
RolloTomasi - January 27, 2012
Only green m&m’s too.
Patrick Tenney - January 27, 2012
That goes without saying.
RolloTomasi - January 27, 2012
-Uwe Boll will direct
-4 full front scenes but Ms. Portman demands you wear an Affliction shirt at all other times during filming
-The cast and crew would prefer to call you Seadog.
-This is Ok as the entirey of the film crew are Falmer
menckenstein - January 27, 2012
As long as it's not those damn Shadowmasters.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012

Anyone equating something like this to nine fucking eleven is a fool.
Jonathan. - January 27, 2012
Hey Dana! Maybe it's time to stop challenging the hackers before any credit card information is compromised
and fans become collateral damage. Think of the Fightclub fans! OH WON’T SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE FIGHTCLUB FANS!?!?
pud333 - January 27, 2012
Thankfully I only had that worthless feature for a year.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
I signed up once for Fightclub so I could make sure I got tickets to the first Vancouver show.
Not gonna bother with that again. If my information gets compromised, I will be seriously fucking pissed. I work for a financial institution, so I would have some sort of control over how to protect myself, but it would be a lot of extra work just because Dana won’t shut the fuck up.
pud333 - January 27, 2012
Yeah I got it for the ticket pre-sale as well...
They sold out within an hour, but suddenly had more batches of tickets for the newsletter presale and general public sale the following days.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
I’m a little worried about the prelims stream on UFC.tv tomorrow.. would be shitty if they took the site down. Then again, finding illegal streams of the FUEL broadcast should be fairly easy.
Also I’m not a huge fan of the fact that UFC.tv has my credit card information… oh well.
And what’s with everyone hating on dubstep? It’s great dancing music, ya hear!
In conclusion: DFW is a bit of an idiot and he brought this on himself.
Horselover Fat - January 27, 2012

I've seen this
But how do “normal” people dance it at parties. Do they just try to do that and look like Elaine Benes?
IRodC - January 27, 2012
Well, that’s what makes it so great, the fact that it’s so.. eclectic and doesn’t just follow a donk-donk-donk trance beat. You can dance however you want, as with any music I guess. But it’s more fun in my opinion anyway.
Horselover Fat - January 27, 2012
I don't mind dubstep
It’s party music, I just get annoyed with people listening to it on the train and telling me it’s better than any other music ever.
IRodC - January 27, 2012
Right, yeah, I guess it has become kind of a trendy thing lately. To be honest I don’t listen to it at home myself, I just like it at the club if I’m in that kind of mode.
Horselover Fat - January 27, 2012
Between Soulja Boy, Dubstep, LMFAO and Reggaeton blasting out of cars

LuvinMMA - January 27, 2012 via mobile
If your CC info was on UFC.tv, make sure you keep a good watch on your CC bills.
Seriously, this is no joke. As someone who has had his information and accounts compromised once before and nearly had thousands of dollars stolen, a bit of prevention and monitoring early on will save you hours of headaches later. Dana is a huge fucking asshole for putting his fans at risk like this.
pud333 - January 27, 2012
Yeah, I’ll definitely keep an eye open. I’ve had some shit happened before, it was a pain in the ass but ultimately I got all my money back in the end. Wasn’t very amusing though while I was out several thousand dollars.
Horselover Fat - January 27, 2012
Anonymous also got access to personal information of Qriocity users during the PSN hack, and I don’t think anything bad came out of it. Not saying that means everyone’s safe, just being optimistic.
Zachary Kater - January 27, 2012
For sure.
I’m not so much worried about Anonymous, but more for what it all means. If they can get that info, others could potentially too, and those others may not have good intentions.
pud333 - January 27, 2012
I would like to see a new interview with Dana
Wonder what he would look like, would he still talk smack? Don’t think he expected they have his personal data and now the hacked website. In the last interview he kinda laughed they just moved the url and didn’t really hack the site.

These types of events make me think Dana wont be in charge of the UFC much longer...
seriously, you are the president of a multi million dollar business and you have a website that has records of credit card information for millions of your customers, yet you put all of them at risk because your ego wont let you be the bigger man and avoid an argument with a bunch of anonymous people that can hack you with ease? that is easily the most unprofessional thing he has done. all he had to do was not respond to them.
KeVbK - January 27, 2012

that quote just blows my damn mind. did he really compare his situation to 9/11? or is that deadspin twisting his words.
unreal if so.
Clifford J - January 27, 2012
no he said that
he more or less said this is like 9/11 and like the aftermath and everyone is going to rally together to stop the “internet nerds”. it is absurd that a president of a million dollar company can be this delusional.
KeVbK - January 27, 2012
I worked with "internet nerds" obsessed with memes.
When they laugh they say “lol”. I hear “RAGGGEE” about 50 times a day. These are people in their mid to late 20s. It is incredibly refreshing being around backward friends who work real jobs that don’t put them in front of PCs all day. They have normal conversations and make their own jokes, they don’t repeat a word or a phrase over and over because apparently “funny” these days is directly related to how often something is repeated. Hey I like memes too but there’s a limit to this shit.
UncleMax - January 27, 2012
The only thing Dana White should be thankful for
Is that there’s a Florida Primary coming up and ESPN is in Super Bowl hype-machine mode. And also thankful that media is pro-SOPA and are so clueless that they don’t even know that Eric Holder’s personal information was DOXed last week.
Proper media coverage would put Dana under serious scrutiny.

So this what I said
Me: Fuuuuuuhhhhhhh is this Dana white president of the UFC?
?:who is this!!!!????
Me: Peter from Fresno! Where is Dana?
?: why don’t you just fuck off!!!

there are some serious ups and downs to this
first of all, this has provided an insane amount of attention on the ufc, we’re hours away from arguably the most important UFC card of all time #opUFC was trending in the top 3 worldwide. that’s a shit ton of attention brought to them. this may or may not translate into viewers come tomorrow.
second, while the defacing itself wasn’t that impressive, what is impressive is that the data they provided proves they’ve found a backdoor, it’s likely they’ve downloading gigs and gigs worth of data and information that is what “stage 2” will more than likely end up being. one thing for sure #OpUFC isn’t over! dana’s best bet is just to be quiet. the more he addresses them, the more they’ll get “lulz” out of fucking with him.

Your comment makes perfect sense and raises good points. That’s unacceptable, post a gif or internet meme or gtfo.
Patrick Tenney - January 27, 2012
hahaha okay okay.
Johnathan Willis - January 27, 2012
That’s better.

Surprised Zack De La Rocha never used that in a lyric…

Sighs....

Krimson - January 27, 2012
Saw them live twice.
Incredible band live.
RolloTomasi - January 27, 2012
absolutely!
saw Rage, Cypress Hill, Beastie Boys and a Tribe called Quest at the Rack in New Brunswick NJ. one of the best shows ever. they finished the encores w/ a “sure shot” to “how i just killed a man” to “killing in the name of” w/ like 20 folks on stage
F'n Clownshoes - January 27, 2012
I always wanted to see Tribe.

rohedron - January 27, 2012
Except for... you know, successful revolutions
But you know Dana is a fight promoter, history is not his deal
IRodC - January 27, 2012
Pretty much, yeah.

Unabomberman - January 27, 2012
Heh, Anonymous just retweeted my post saying follow them and everyone else related to them or UGNazi.
SSreporters - January 27, 2012
The way things are going
I expect Anon to leak some of Dana’s emails that would get him in deep shit.
av1o3 - January 27, 2012

Grappo - January 27, 2012
What's Smasher Group?
It sounds like a website where in the closet jocks gather.
