What's happening in LUSENET land

The Open Discussion Board, a very small (so far) offshoot of the defunct Unk's which hasn't been in operation long enough to offend anyone, has just been screwed up by a hacker.

From what I understand, a good number of LUSENET boards have been victims. I checked a few at random and those that appear to be populated by people "like us" seem to be the targets. Instead of passwording or complaining to LUSENET, it seems forums are moving elsewhere or just shutting down.

I'm not going to make accusations and put myself at risk of a libel charge, but I can think of several candidates--perhaps they're all involved. Just ask yourself: who from the past has a grudge against "people like us" and/or LUSENET?

Anyone keeping track of where those boards are moving too? Be nice to add some places to our list of possibles...
