Internet data hijacking via BGP reported
http://j.mp/IG3ClI (Wired)
"Earlier this year, researchers say, someone mysteriously hijacked
internet traffic headed to government agencies, corporate offices and
other recipients in the U.S. and elsewhere and redirected it to
Belarus and Iceland, before sending it on its way to its legitimate
destinations. They did so repeatedly over several months. But luckily
someone did notice."
