MI6 Hacked Al Qaeda Website, Swapping Bomb Recipes With Cupcake Recipes
Avatar for Kat Hannaford Kat Hannaford �MI6 Hacked Al Qaeda Website, Swapping Bomb Recipes With Cupcake RecipesJust imagine the look of surprise on an al Qaeda member's face when they thought they were loading a tutorial on how to "make a bomb in the kitchen of your mom" but actually got...a recipe for mojito cupcakes.
Famed British intelligence agency MI6 hacked the first English-language Jihadist online magazine, Inspire, last year but their cheeky content-swapping mission has only just been made public now. And thank goodness.
As the story goes, they swapped potentially-destructive bomb-making tutorials with jumbled-up code for the Ellen DeGeneres talkshow website, which contained cupcake recipes from Main Street Cupcakes in Hudson, Ohio. Recipes for delicious-sounding mojito and rocky road cupcakes, which contained the caveat "warning: sugar rush ahead!" Uh-oh�watch out for that dangerous sugar rush, terrorists!
