There is one movie every Polish person knows. It's a cult comedy from 
the 80s called "Miś" - meaning "Teddy Bear". Now, thanks to a hacker 
going by a name "Porkythepig", everyone can see it - but not on YouTube 
where you would expect it, but on the USA military Defence Logistics 
Agency website.

If you go the site and just type "porkythepig", a fragment of a movie 
begins to play. It's in Polish, of course - for those not fluent in 
Polish the man with a guitar sings: "I'm a Happy Romek..." * It's funny

vulnerability that exists on many sites, including military and 
government.
