] Rubi-Con Defaced?

] So there I am, 11:25 at night,when I get a call.
]
] "Have you see www.rubi-con.org?" they ask.
]
] "No, not recently" I say.
]
] In a letter on Rubi-Con's home page there is a claim that
] Rubi-Con and myself have been in some sort of legal
] battle, and that I have somehow forced Rubi-Con of
] business.
]
] Seeing how this is the first I have heard of it, I am
] going to assume that Rubi-Con got their web site rooted
] and defaced by someone trying to stir up trouble in the
] underground. If they had spent any time looking at
] defcon.org they would have realized that we have been
] listing Rubi-Con in our Upcoming Conventions calendar
] since their first show, and that some of the DEF CON
] organizers help with Rubi-Con as well as with ToorCon.
]
] We support the community, not divide it.
]
] To summarize: There has never been any litigation between
] us. If there had been, it would be public record, etc.
]
] Nice hack.

See http://www.rubi-con.org for their "legal battle" letter. My guess is that they weren't hacked, but posted it themselves, as a way of getting attention. They claim "very public legal battles" with Defcon, but there's never been any such thing (google it yourself).

For more info about RubiCon claims, check here (but keep in mind that much of this may be false as well):
