Mexican government hacked.

contributed by X-Ploit
Exclusive!
Updated!
Early Wednesday morning a hacking team known only as "X-Ploit" replaced the main page of a Mexican Government site. The X-Ploit Team is believed to consist of three hackers that use only the handles of LoTek, LeadRain, and DES as identification.
According to a boast on the hacked web page the X-Ploit team owns the entire gob.mx domain. They list several other Mexican government sites that they have hacked over the last year from the Secretary of Property and Public Credit to the Secretary of Health.
The hacked page stayed up on the hacked site for over six hours before it was replaced with original content.
The hacked web page declared the Internet territory, with its virtual borders, free from the yoke of corrupt and treasonous government. They ended the page with this quote "Mexico for Mexicans and the Internet for X-Ploit"
The site was back up early Thursday morning and was quickly hacked again. Shortly after that the site was unreachable. We have been unable to contact the Mexican authorities for comment.
The X-Ploit has granted HNN an exclusive interview. We have posted thier unaltered comments here[defaced/1998/mexico0998/xploit.html - MISSING]
Original Site Maybe off line or still hacked
