This story is from The Register, a techie news-and-occasional-humour site which I look at every day. I'm rather surprised that they didn't make the Captain Scarlet connection themselves...

I particularly like the final paragraph about insurance!

They did say that their 'retaliation will be slow but nonetheless effective...' ;-$
