Is Facebook being hacked? 2010-07-28 23:52:24 Reply

Well, on the last couple of hours my brother has been seeing some weird messages on the "like" button and other places on the site.
Apparenttly, it is something in Turkish (?) and has weird meanings, things regarding your grandpa and stuff. The only thing we could translate well was on the birthdays page, something that said "fuck you bitches!" with the help of google translator.

Also, I found this site:
http://www.allpakistaninews.com/turkish-
hacker-blocked-facebook-and-destroy-data .html

"FACEBOOK BANNED.

The ban was imposed due to a Facebook group started by an individual that asked for users to submit caricatures of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) as part of "Draw Muhammad Day" In a developing story, news is that Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has asked Internet Service Providers to block Youtube and Wikipedia as well.
facebook ban

facebook ban

According to a PTA official, the ban expanded to YouTube because some caricatures from Facebook were uploaded to Youtube. Twitter users have mentioned that Wikipedia and Flickr are on the blacklist too. BBC has confirmed that some Wikipedia pages are indeed being blocked.

The decision to ban these websites has divided the Pakistan on the street and those on the Internet. Facebook for its part has said that they weren't warned about this block."

What are your thoughts on this?

I was talking to some guy on chat before, and when I refresh facebook and look at the chat, there were links between my messages to some sites that had malicious stuff on them, odd considering I didn't send them. Maybe they are related? Hasn't happened since or beforehand though...

Yeah, it's getting all weird, but only on my desktop pc, on my laptop everything is fine.
I dont know why, but I'm very curious about it. I tink it's weird to see a major website get hacked.

Well, i heard they were deleting user accounts and groups so, i dont think so.

Bilgin, here is some of the text we found there,we're not sure if it's turkish but let's try:
- 2 inci ba%u015Fka yok
-dedelere verdim
-inci minakor

Only ones we were able to save, since it looks like it's going back to normal.

Now i read on another page that it might say something about child molesting or something, and that ut may be polish (?) language.
Things are fishy, and to be honest kinda scary if it really mean something like that.

Here is a screenshot of the "fuck you".

I dont use facebook all day, but I think it's pretty serious if a site with a lot of personal info from its users is hacked, and these hackers have acces to all that info.

Looks like they did it by hacking the facebook translator and affecting spanish users and some other language users too.

There are also offensive messages on spanish and other shit, like instead of "all my pics" is "all my dicks".

Whatever, I tought maybe this was a 4chan thing and you guys had some info about it. Guess I was wrong.

It's working fine for me, maybe it's because I set my language to pirate.

All this blocking and censoring is like China all over again...

No really, but it's interesting to know that your personal info is not as safe as you think.
Some friends accounts got deleted too, so, it's a general problem.
Just looking if anyone had any more info here.

Lol, of course, most of the text its in spanish because it was taken by an account in spanish. The other things are wrong, like the fuck you and the other weird phrases.

I'm pretty sure that Facebook is for people that have lives, meaning that none of us need Facebook. At least, that's my take on it.


I come and go. Sometimes I say stupid shit. I'll regret this post when I look back at it next year.

lol, it looks like one of my (literally) gay friends has recently been getting tagged with images of random cocks jizzing within the past few hours.
I'm guessing he just saw this other guy on Facebook thinking he was hot and added him as a friend.
Boy is he in for a surprise.

That language is so retarded! Why the fuck would it have a few english words then go off it some random ass language? I can understand if they cannot pronounce a word so the say it in another language, but don't have it in each sentence!
