Devuan.org Now Points To 'Pwned' Page With Gopher URLs

'"DEVUAN.ORG HAS BEEN PWNED" reads a new message at the home page for
Devuan (a fork of Debian without systemd) -- which re-redirects to a
new page named pwned.html, reports Slashdot reader DevNull127:

In all capital letters, its carefully-indented message (complete with
an ascii-art logo) now informs visitors that "the web sucks --
JavaScript sucks -- browsers suck." Posting the URLs to several gopher
sites, it adds that "Gopher is the way -- gopher is the future."

"Kiss port 80 goodbye. Join the revolution on port 70."

The attackers identify themselves as "Green Hat Hackers," a term
generally understood to mean ambitious newbie hackers who want to
improve their skills. "Stop the madness," continues their message,
which appeared just hours before the first day of April.

"Get yourself a gopher client."'
