Wow this must be a major blow to Baidu. This time their scripts was hijacked to DDoS, not that bad.

Since we all know that the Chinese government would never do a thing like this, it must mean that there is a very powerful hacker group behind this. And they are probably DDoSing for profit. Who knows what they may do for profit next? Spy on users? Steal passwords? Credit cards? Impersonating users?

Until Baidu implements a secure crypto solution that can prevent this malevolent hacker gang from sending corrupted scripts, it would be very irresponsible to use baidu analytics!

Why?

They've mobilised the Troll Department

I'm kind of amazed that these trolls are so obvious. It makes me wonder how much user generated content is really government generated content that we miss because it's not as apparent.

What if it's all government generated content? Maybe there are no real users online at all.

Wow, this one has >100 karma and his other comments are actually reasonable.. Normally they're new accounts. Maybe this is just a regular nut?

I'd assumed it was sarcasm, but clearly Poe's law applies here.

[Perdition]

I think that was sarcasm.

The much-vaunted principle of non-interference in other countries' internal affairs, of course.

Something bothers me about this post. It's obvious astroturfing, but this user has a large amount of legit comments. They are in perfect English, while this is clearly not, and uses a totally different tone and voice than their previous comments.
