Hacker collective Lizard Squad has reportedly hacked the official website of Lenovo wherein the site saw a slideshow of disaffected youths, set to the song "Breaking Free" from High School Musical, according to users visiting the site at 4PM.

The site seemed to have reverted back to its normal form after a few minutes but HTML problems still persisted and the song continued to play in the background, reported the Verge.

The page was identified by the source code after hacking as "the new and improved rebranded Lenovo website featuring Ryan King and Rory Andrew Godfrey" where the two people were identified as the members of the hacker group.

 

It is unclear whether it was actually hacked by Lizardsquad as the names could have been used to muddle with the identities.
