On Sunday night, a hacker group redirected UFC.com visitors to a site called UGNazi.com, claiming the hack was in response to the UFC's support of the controversial SOPA and PIPA bills in Congress. The UFC has now issued an official response (via MMAFighting.com):
"On Sunday, January 22nd, the UFC.com website was redirected by a criminal hacker to another website. The UFC website was quickly restored to the control of the UFC, and there is no evidence suggesting that any confidential information belonging to the company or its customers was compromised by the re-direction of the website. UFC representatives are continuing to investigate the matter and are working with law enforcement agents to prosecute those involved."
