Curiously, the hacker was kind enough to put this in as a separate page at http://hr.foxconn.com/1.html
Both Foxconn’s corporate site at http://www.foxconn.com and HR site at http://hr.foxconn.com are still up and running.
Could this be an inside job, we wonder?
[Editor’s note: “514” sounds like “我要死” or “I want to die” in Chinese]
