Admit it... You changed that file for the one and only purpose of targeting ads to MySpace users. You could have used .htaccess, but instead you decided to get a little free advertising on MySpace.
MySpace has recently come under media scrutiny for the content of their profiles not being in the best interest of underage users.... So what do you do? You pop an XXX popup and think that MySpace isn't going to care.
Hello?

I'm curious...
If a surfer forum was linking to a movie you have on your server and it ran up your BW bill, I'm sure you would take immediate action to block them or "seek revenge". Would you not? So let's assume you put up a ******* video on your server. Its your server, you can put up whatever legal material you want, right? Well, this surfer forum doesn't like ******* near as much as GFY does, so they email your host complaining about your totally legal movie instead of taking action and correcting their wrong doing. Your host, for whatever reason, agrees with the surfer forum and they pull down your legal video without saying boo to you.
How would you respond? The surfer forum has a right to change legal content on YOUR server?
