Brazil takes it out on the web

The men’s soccer team lost to Argentina, the women’s soccer team lost to the U.S., the beach volleyball team lost to Dalhausser and Rogers. And that was just the beginning.

Brazilians are so upset with the performance of their teams at the Olympics that they hacked the Brazilian Olympic Committee’s Web site, forcing the organization to take it down.

“Brazil stinks in these Olympics,” wrote one of the hackers. The Olympic committee posted this statement: “Dear user, our site is temporarily off the air for maintenance reasons.”
