Hmmm.. Here's the report from the other side:
http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/...1251290200.htm

Hoping that the Satyam people working at WB premises haven't done this BS stuff... If they have, then it will be quite a blow for Satyam (and other services companies).

I'm more interested in the technical details of how the logging that was done, but I guess we'll never know that Its really pathetic that a well-known company does it to a world-level organization, though.

WTF?
If Satyam still owns Sify, maybe there are keyloggers in all Sify iWay centers too!

Dude that a very narrow thinking.
Sify has its cyber cafe chain all over india, so if 2 of them are shut, then it won't effect them. also they aren't directly owned by company.

Rather its franchise.

Not just that.. I don't see many Sify posters these days.. I can't say that the company is losing business, but I'm just telling what i observed..

This is the FOX news link from where it started: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,435681,00.html

Even after this news broke out, Satyam shares rose 12-13% on Monday (yesterday). So, I don't think there is much truth in this.

A joke involving FOX news:
Quote:
BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS -- A study released today by a prestigious think tank suggests that April Fool's Day fabrications are far less likely to fool the public. The culprit? FOX News.

"We're bombarded with fake news and propaganda 365 days a year. Err... make that 366. This is a leap year," explained Lirpa Sloof, chairwoman of the Boston University Laboratory for Learning Superior Holistic Investigative Techniques. "Thanks to FOX News, the White House, and various other mouthpieces, people don't believe anything they see on TV anymore."
