Am I an overly-cautious nubcake, or do any of you also refrain from clicking the link when it says, "We've been compromised. Come visit our site!"?
If I were a mean dude who hacked into some prominent site, the first thing I would do is submit a link to HN that points to a malicious "article" and laugh as malware gets thrust into thousands of computers.
Way too much mork. If you have a way of infecting computers by simply visiting a webpage, just tag it some kind of porn and post on reddit & other forums.
