We know that Call of Duty: Black Ops is one great multiplayer game, but would you hack a server in order to play your favourite multiplayer game? Apparently, some folks would go that far just to host a Call of Duty: Black Ops game.
A group of hardcore Call of Duty: Black Ops players were desperately in need of a server to host their game, so they decided to hack a medical server. That's right, a radiology department in New Hampshire was the victim of this attack, and luckily all of patient health information remained intact. Currently, this department holds private health information on 230, 000 patients, so you see why this has become such a big deal. According to the reports, it seems that the hackers were located in Scandinavia and they used the server's bandwidth to host a Black Ops game.
This security breach was revealed on November 12 by their server admin, and we're asking ourselves, how far are people willing to go in order to play their favourite game?
