There’s still no information on how exactly the website was compromised. Trevor Ncube, the chairman of the company that owns the paper tweeted that they have no idea who attacked NewsDay and that they focused on avoiding future compromise.

Replacement of the comment system suggests security issues with the old system. Ncube himself responded that the “Disqus comment facility is part of enhancing [the] security structure” for the Newsday website, when we asked him..

Ok did they hack the website or attack it, make up your mind dammit! Whats a hack attack.

Proof reading on your website…hahaha…
l also noticed that since discus was used for making comments on Newsday, they have been fewer comments on news stories. It can be because of two things. Its either that people are being more responsible now that uu have to log in and make comments or as sometimes l noticed, discus on occasions is such a pain to use from a mobile phone. It also does not give all the features when accessed from phone.
Tru. disqus on mobile is a pain. a pain on IE too.
Not tru. Disqus lets a user comment without logging in. 🙂
but you have to be a signed user right?
don’t need to be signed user. You can comment as ‘guest’. all disqus needs is an email and name, both which can be fake and thus anonymous.
why can´t share in my facebook wall?
