Artist Madonna launched her latest album with an anti-piracy campaign in P2P networks, distributing MP3 tracks that looked like actual songs from artist's latest album, but contained simply a voice of Madonna asking "What the fuck do you think you're doing?".
Well, some clever hackers who obviously got relatively angry about artist's attitude against P2P networks, managed to hack her official website, madonna.com, during the weekend and posting all the tracks from her album American Life for download.
The hacked website simply stated: "This is what the fuck I think I'm doing". After the hacking was noticed, Madonna's site went offline for good 15 hours.
