Do I miss something? Have you seen people walking around, burning
flags and shouting "This is the beginning of the end of the
MudConnector"? Maybe euh... maybe I should tell you...
WAKE UP! IT'S JUST A DEFACEMENT!
If they were suffering from a giant denial-of-service attack, then
I would stand up for them. If their message-boards were wiped, I
would be outragious. If their database was demolished, I would
fight back. But it's just a defacement: Fool me once, shame on
you; Fool me twice, shame on me. Woops, we made a small mistake,
thanks for pointing it out to us, we'll fix it. Etc.

United Nations is a much better example. United States sounds so
nationalistic, it's not funny.

No it doesn't. It stands for a place where they have a huge listing
of available muds and a huge webbased discussion forum. (oh my,
that's exactly the reason why I don't be bothered going there)
