4chan Hacks Time's Top 100 List


We all know that hackers are all over the internet, but most of the time we talk about them with a negative connotation. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that hackers are “good,” but sometimes they’re just playful. For instance, Time’s third annual poll of the world’s most influential person was topped by moot A.K.A. Christopher Poole, founder of the legendary memebreeding forum 4chan.

Now, I’m not saying that moot doesn’t deserve to be on this list, 4chan can easily be said to be one of the many influential sites on the Internet. However, this is obviously an elaborate hack done by 4chan users.
