Hi everyone,
Just a heads up. The title says it all with the exception that everyone is 90% certain it is a hack, there is small chance this is unintentional but wont know more til later. If I learn more I will post it here. Getting pinged on twitter about it so thought I would make a public post somewhere. Cheers

I ran it through Google, site came up. This is the top post: http://wikipediawehaveaproblem.com/2018 ... t-the-ftn/
I tried to access the site through DuckDuckGo, no dice. It works through Yahoo!'s search engine.
Still "Globally Banned" on Wikipedia for the high crime of journalism.

Hmm, this is really bizarre. I ran the title on Duck Duck Go and this came up:
But clicking on the top result simply takes you back to DDG's top page. Never seen that before.
