I find it very unfortunate that 300 supposed security professionals
clicked on a hidden link like that without first checking what it was,
or if not simply ignoring it like I did!!!

Anyway, it doesn't hurt anybody: it's just a vote.
Well, let me explain. I'm a journalist (non IT, mainstream) preparing
an article about different internet communities behaviors. I've posted
similar messages talking about a security issue, pron pics, divx,
software and breaking news in several famous boards accordingly to
analyze the different related communities behaviors.
Each one links to a vote for different video contests so that I can
measure the hints.
Good to notice: this message has generated about 300 votes in the
first 15 minutes, making it the second score behind "divx" for now on.

Thank you, and sorry for inconveniences (if any) !

    That's pretty clever. But it doesn't work when people have tinyURL
