Yesterday was Orkut, Today is YouTube
"I guess you've all already heard about this 'YouTube has been hacked' thing and that 'Miguel Targa has hacked it'. I'm here to tell you that all of this is a lie. YouTube has not been hacked. The only thing that happened was that video titles were edited. My name is Miguel Targa and I'm here to explain all of this to you. Today I discovered a ridiculous flaw by google in which allowed you to easily edit anyone's video title (and you didn't have to be the video's owner). (...)"
"(...) It was so ridiculous that right after I started editing a few videos, lots of people were able to [figure it out and] do the same. So, everything was a flaw in the YouTube system. I'm not a hacker. I have no passwords. I haven't done this with bad intensions. I could've done a spam and posted some site links.But I didn't. I've just explored this YouTube flaw a little bit and right after those Kiddies started doing a huge mess with it, which I find ridiculous. And that's about it people."
