Akaku.org Alive & Kicking!
Thursday, October 29th, 2009Organization Website Downed by “Trojan Attack” for 24 Hours, Now Fixed. (We promise, your computer won’t even get cooties.)
I almost had a heart attack visiting Akaku.org last week. If you tried to visit our organization website on Wednesday or Thursday, you might have encountered a pretty scary red and grey splash page instead of our usual, friendly and interactive blue homepage at akaku.org.
The page screamed, “Reported Attack Site!” with an authoritative stick figure of a man holding up a traffic sign. It continued to say, “Attack sites try to install programs that steal private information, use your computer to attack others, or damage your system.”
Sounds evil. What would make a Google-bot think such nasty things about Akaku? After all, we’re about media access and free speech and getting jiggy with media technologies. (more…)
The Board of Akaku: Maui Community Television announced the results for the Producers’ Elections at its Board of Directors meeting on Friday, Oct. 16 and appointed Tina Lia and Howard Selnick to fill the two vacant Producers seats on Friday, Oct. 30. The announcement and the meeting aired recently on Akaku channel 54. 
Akaku: Maui Community Television (Akaku) empowers the community's voice through access to media. Akaku is a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation that airs content created by the community for the community. Community members on Maui, Moloka'i, and Lana'i are encouraged to submit programming to the station, create their own television shows and have their voices heard by fellow community members.
