Hackers took down the website of a Tennessee nonprofit that was collecting donations for Japan and replaced the home page with profanity. Japan-America Society of Tennessee executive director Leigh Weiland said hackers broke into the site sometime Wednesday night. The group's web-hosting company was able to get the site back up Thursday morning. Before that, anyone trying to go to the group's home page encountered a mostly blank screen with an offensive phrase at the top. Weiland said her group, which promotes goodwill for and understanding of Japan, has established a relief fund for Japanese victims of Friday's earthquake and tsunami. The site has been getting a lot of traffic from people who want to donate money.

According to TMZ.com, the ring broke into the accounts of stars' cell phones and other computerized devices to obtain the compromising photos and videos. Among the celebrities reportedly hacked: Jessica Alba, Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, Christina Aguilera, Vanessa Hudgens, Scarlett Johansson, Ali Larter, and Miley Cyrus.

Breaking in to an encrypted router and using the WiFi connection is not an criminal offence, a Dutch court ruled. WiFi hackers can not be prosecuted for breaching router security. A court in The Hague ruled earlier this month that it is legal to break WiFi security to use the internet connection. The court also decided that piggybacking on open WiFi networks in bars and hotels can not be prosecuted. In many countries both actions are illegal and often can be fined. The ruling is linked to a case of a student who threatened to shoot down everyone at the Maerlant College in The Hague, a high school. He posted a threat on the internet message board 4chan.org using a WiFi connection that he broke into. The student was convicted for posting the message and sentenced to 20 hours of community service, but he was acquitted of the WiFi hacking charges. The Judge reasoned that the student didn't gain access to the computer connected to the router, but only used the routers internet con...
