Deface Hacker Definition
One particular Website at http://www.attrition.org/mirror/attrition/ lists various sites that have been defacedan item that they call the defacement mirror. However, a note on this attrition Website currently says that what began as a rather tiny collection of Website defacement mirrors soon turned into a massive 24-hour-a-day, seven-day-a-week project. By 2001, says this note, a single days mirroring included more than 100 defaced Websitesmore than three times the total mirrored for 1995 and 1996. By May 2001, maintaining the mirror became a full-time, thankless chore, so the sponsors stopped the activity. Todays Website features what had been there as of May 21, 2001.
