MI6 Swaps Bomb Making Info With Cupcake Recipe On al-Qaeda Website 149

The British Intelligence agency has unveiled its latest weapon in the war on terror, cupcake recipes published by the Ellen DeGeneres show. MI6 hacked an online al-Queda magazine replacing instructions about how to “Make a bomb in the Kitchen of your Mom" with a web page of recipes for “The Best Cupcakes in America” from Ellen's show. From the article: "It included a recipe for the Mojito Cupcake – 'made of white rum cake and draped in vanilla buttercream'- and the Rocky Road Cupcake – 'warning: sugar rush ahead!' By contrast, the original magazine featured a recipe showing how to make a lethal pipe bomb using sugar, match heads and a miniature lightbulb, attached to a timer."

    Will WarnerBros pursue MI-6, who will disavow all knowledge?

    They wouldn't even respond. MI6 (or rather SIS... MI6 was a name used by the media to refer to the organization when its existence was a badly kept secret but nobody knew what it was actually called) enjoys crown immunity [wikipedia.org] from prosecution (except for tort or contract violations -- copyright violations are neither).
