Internet: Swedish trade union site attacked by sarcastic little buggers!

Hackers have attacked the web site of Swedish union organisation LO. The attack took place on the morning of New Year's Day.

According to "The Local" the whole appearance of the site was changed, and instead of content regarding the role of unions, readers were informed that during 2007, LO would "continue the fight to ensure that everyone gets the same abysmal salary".

Using white text on a black background, the hackers added that the membership fee would "go directly to defaming small businesses".

I thought that was what unions did best!
