A so-called "terrorist" hacker has forced an internet forum associated with international toymaker Lego offline.

Though Lego had buckled to pressure and agreed to stop using Maori words in its range of Bionicle toys, the BZPower Bionicle website and its fans continued using the original names.
The hacker, identified only as "Kotiate", emailed website administrators last week, giving them 24 hours to remove the site's email forum "and discontinue the abusive use of the Maori culture, customs and history".
The hacker demanded that the site announce to Lego and the international media its "remorse and desire to begin an active campaign against the abuse of indigenous cultures". [more: stuff.co.nz]
