Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS) website hacked by a Pinoy hacker

Yesterday night, when I visited the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS) website, I was surprised to see its front page. It was defaced by a hacker named lastlook. He used the alphanumeric name "l4stl00k".
This is what you can see if you go to the MWSS website (www.mwss.gov.ph/):

Take note of the names:
  • Ken05
  • h34rth4ck3r
  • #pR.1s0n3r
  • lo0p th3 lo0p
  • pRivateX
  • Pinoy Vendetta
And below might be the name of the group of hackers in different regions:
  • Anonymous Manila
  • Anonymous Butuan
  • Anonymous Philippines
  • Anonymous Mindoro
There's a short greeting below, "gr33ts all pinoy h4ck3rz" which translates to "greets all pinoy hackers".

And when you click the "Click Me Here" button, many pop-up windows (browsers) will open in your computer. Those pop-up windows contained similar gay sex videos.

Why do these Pinoy hackers target our very own Philippine-based website?

Below are the things Facebook users said in GMA News Facebook page post (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150993231171977&set=a.126333131976.110480.116724526976&type=1) regarding MWSS website hacking:

"jaja, palusot lng yan ng MWSS na nahack website nila para hindi sila pgbalingan ng sisi ng mamamayan sa kalamidad na nangyayari ngyon, pinoy pa mautak pagdating sa pera." (Wing Capri)

"para hindi na ungkatin kung saan na ang bilyong2x pundo ng MWSS para sa mga proyekto na wla naman nagawa kaya bumaha ang buong maynila." (Wing Capri)

"buhusan nyo ng tubig ang computer nyo,dali! Teka lang,ano na ang nangyari sa mga opisyal dyan na ginagawang gatasan ang MWSS." (Rick Cruz)

"lupet nitong hacker na to ah..master! hehe" (Archie Jay Quiñones)


For me, I respect the hacker. He only proves that the online security of MWSS website is very weak and vulnerable.

A government website should be highly secured.

And there's a main big reason why the hacker defaced the MWSS website.

What do you think is the reason why MWSS was being hacked? Tell us in the comment below.
