MySpace: John McCain's Page Defaced In Support of Gay Marriage
A blogger changed an image being linked to on Senator John McCain's MySpace to display a message stating Senator McCain supported gay marriage.
The prankster was actually the author of the prank is Mike Davidson, CEO of Newsvine.com. Davidson claims no laws were broken, since the image displayed on John McCain's MySpace web page was hosted on Davidson's servers.
Lessons for McCain campaign: Don't use intellectual property of other's without proper attribution. Don't steal data bandwidth from other web servers not under your financial support.
