Hackers Have Field Day with Madonna Decoy
Sun Apr 27, 3:56 PM ET
By Chris Marlowe
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Anyone who thinks they can =
control=3D20
the Internet received an object lesson during the past week.
It all started when Madonna literally lent her voice to a popular=3D20
antipiracy technique. Warner Music Group had audio files purporting =
to=3D20
be her new songs uploaded onto peer-to-peer file-sharing services.=3D20
Anyone who downloaded the decoys, however, heard nothing but the =
pop=3D20
star swearing at them. But since then, the pithy profanity has taken =
on=3D20
a life of its own.
Some observers thought Madonna was smart to fight piracy with its =
own=3D20
tools. Others perceived a thrown gauntlet -- hackers soon defaced=3D20
Madonna's Web site with an equally profane retort along with =
several=3D20
downloadable files of the then-unreleased songs. The defacement =
also=3D20
carried a marriage proposal to Morgan Webb, an associate producer =
and=3D20
on-air presenter at TechTV who had nothing to do with the prank.
A third group saw a creative opportunity. "What the f--- do you =
think=3D20
you're doing," Madonna's now-infamous phrase, is turning up in dozens of =
=3D
remixes and the computer-aided musical collages known as cutups or =3D
mashups.
Independent music community DMusic is now hosting a competition for =
the=3D20
best Madonna-based track, with the first prize being a =
"boycott-riaa"=3D20
T-shirt and stickers.
Links to other related tracks are being put together at=3D20
http://www.iriXx.org/madonna/ and other sites.
"Madonna was trying to put one over on the kids ... and they in =
turn=3D20
wanted to let her know that she's not in as much control as she =
thinks=3D20
she is," Webb said, adding that "coke, anger and boredom" were also=3D20
possible motivators.
Madonna's "American Life" was released Tuesday and is predicted to enter =
=3D
Billboard's charts at No. 1, albeit with sales considerably lower =
than=3D20
that for her previous album "Music."
