HFG /= ULG
ATTRITION.ORG
PRESS RELEASE SEPTEMBER 15, 1999
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
On this date, John Vranesevich of AntiOnline (http://www.antionline.com) published a news article on the AntiOnline site which claimed that members of the Attrition staff (http://www.attrition.org) are or were involved in criminal activities as perpetrated by hack groups called "United Loan Gunmen" (ULG) and "Hacking For Girlies" (HFG). Sites breached by these groups include both NASDAQ/AMEX and the New York Times.
The wanton disregard for accuracy, fairness and balance in AntiOnline's article compels us to respond. The staff of Attrition.Org will no longer tolerate these unwarranted attacks on our site and the character of our support staff. These most recent remarks by AntiOnline are not only inflammatory, but serve to jeopardize the full-time careers of more than one staff member of Attrition.Org.
We seek to demonstrate, beyond all question, that Attrition.Org, her staff and her administrators are in no way involved in any criminal activities. We also seek to demonstrate, using nothing but the facts of these incidents, that there is no credible basis for the linking of ULG, HFG and the Attrition name.
We invite the media to note our thorough debunking of AntiOnline's crass attempts at defamation of the character of Attrition and her staff.
