I recently heard about this story, and I was really shocked. A group of hackers decided to hack into the Epilepsy foundation website, they placed a lot of rapidly flashing images and links with the intent to harm the viewers. Many people that have this disorder viewed the website and were hurt by it. For some it caused migranes lasting several days, and for others even seizures. I can't even believe people would do this, they actually committed assault by hacking a website. Here is an article with more information - http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24510864/

That is horrible! I hope those hackers are caught and go to jail for what they did.
