Matrix.org hacked
I can see a lot of people trashing on Matrix.org or the "hacker" themselves (the hacker opened a series of issues, detailing how he managed to get in - <a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix.org/issues/created_by/matrixnotorg" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix.org/issues/created_by/m...</a>). However everyone seems to be missing the point - matrix seems like a pretty cool and open project. And someone taking over their infrastructure in such an open way is also great for the community. Even though a little dubious on the legal side of things, I believe it's great it was approached with transparency and a dose of humor.<p>Some might argue that this is harmful to matrix as a product and as a brand. But as long as there was no actual harm done and they react appropriately by taking infrastructure security seriously, it could play out well in the end for them. This whole ordeal could end up actually increase trust in the project, if they take swift steps to ensure that something like this does not happen again.
