Last month I had the joy of having The Masculinity Conspiracy site hacked. Sorry folks, but today something similar seems to be happening. The front page works, but most of the other pages return an error with a page title of  “Hacking Upload” and a file upload box of saying “Possible file upload attack”:

Needless to say, I don’t recommend you try and upload anything here: as I cannot warrant what will happen if you do.

Hopefully, I’ll get this sorted quickly. Last time, it was sorted in a few hours, but it required some sweet talking to have the $140 repair fee waived (which the ISP said they would not waive again).

I’ve had websites online for over a decade and have never had any trouble, but now there are two problems in two months.

Coincidence or conspiracy?

UPDATE:

Now the front page is gone, replaced by images of Saddam Hussein and a skull. Nice:

Yesterday I did a live interview on the Triple J show Hack, where I offered some thoughts about misogyny to complement those of anthropologist David D. Gilmore: it’s all about power, of course. You can download the show here (the segment starts about 13 minutes in).

As always, I sound like a West Country farmer who has been imprinted with a sociology textbook in an experiment by a cruel and unofficial intelligence agency, but maybe that works for some people…

Well this is weird: it’s just been brought to my attention that The Masculinity Conspiracy site has been hacked. Screenshot below:

No idea if this is just random or if I annoyed someone with the content.

I will have to investigate how to fix this, but it may take a while to get back online.

Conspiracy drama!
