As soon as Canadian Smartphone maker Research In Motion (RIM)
announced its complete support to the Metropolitan Police of London in
order to assist in verifying how its BlackBerry free messenger service
played a role in fuelling the riots, hackers took over the company’s
website and marked their protest.

employees, acquired during the hack, in case the company hands out
support to the Met Police department and authorities. RIM has not
confirmed the attack on its website.
