MakeUseOf.com : Hacked or Domain Expired?

Written by The Shit

Alright good folks, looks like some bad folks have gotten hold of MakeUseOf.com. Usually upon visiting the site you are thrown with some cool applications and softwares that you can make use of. But this is not the case this time around. When you visit the site this is what you see,

For a site that has 20,000 plus subscribers and is a home to couple writers, we seriously doubt they would let their domain expire. I mean, come on, domain registrars send you emails quite a few times before they actually take the domain away. If they let it expire then they have to be the dumbest folks around although they have some good solid content, not renewing their domain would make them the dumbest shit.

But as far as we are concerned, we would say MakeUseOf.com has been Hacked! What do you think? Expired or Hacked?

Update #1: here is an image that shows that its not expired

Update #2 : Just confirmed that it has indeed been hacked. Here is a temporary blog where you can find information on whats going on with http://makeuseof-temporary.blogspot.com/ .
