Coming soon: month full o' MySpace bugs

Ever want to see MySpace crash and burn? Or, are you at least a little tired of the horrific design/coding/everything nightmare that is MySpace? A couple of hackers plan to introduce security vulnerabilities in MySpace next month, revealing one a day as part of the "Month of Bugs" tradition. However, Mondo Armando and Müstaschio, in a kind of satirical, cynical, and humorous fashion, will attempt to subvert both the popular social networking website and the "Month of Bugs" trend simultaneously. From their website, their reasons for this endeavor are as follows:
  • Myspace is important, in that there are a bazillion users and a kajillion dollars involved.
  • "Months of Bugs" are whiny, attention-seeking ploys for acceptance. Myspace's design use is to enable whiny, attention-seeking ploys for acceptance.
  • "Months of Bugs" are annoying, so rather than suffering through another, we figured it'd be better to just create our own where we could at least direct the content a little.
MySpace haters, hackers, coders, and everyone else in-between should look forward to this experiment. What will be the result of spreading word of the Emperor's many vulnerabilities? Only time will tell. Godspeed.
