Default Precision Turbo hack

Thought you guys might get a kick out of this one...

Apparently they didn't pay too much attention to their cybersecurity and paid the price lol

Hope no one has bought one recently and DO NOT try and go on the website, there seems to be a flash player file that autoruns so don't risk it.

Kind of surprising with how big of a business they are.

Not entirely related: But last year google forgot to repurchase their domain and a guy bought it (for $2) but only extorted them for a donation to a charity. But I'm sure it's worth a lot more to them than a couple grand.

Looks like their website is back in business. Wonder if they paid up or had a backup somewhere
