Hanso Foundation Website Shutdown

Hanso foundation shutdown

There has been a big development in the alternate reality game recently, as the website has been shutdown. The Hanso Foundation has issued this statement on its website:

The Hanso Foundation site has been hacked by malicious infiltrators seeking to blemish the good work of many dedicated researchers. Until a legal investigation is completed, the site will no longer be accessible to the public. Namaste.

If you check the source code of the Hanso Website you will see a hidden link to rachelblake.com. This site is a personal blog of an American female visiting Copenhagen.

Also updated was the persephone.thehansofoundation.org page, there is now a creepy soundtrack and a flashing image of a woman. Lost Experience Clues discovered a hidden message within the audio on this page, “101 118 105 100 101 110 116 32 97 103 101 110 100 97″, when you change the decimal to ascii you get “evident agenda“. Use this password in the extra info password box on rachelblake.com.

You will then be taken to her real blog with a video explaining why she is really in Denmark. You will notice her voice is very similar to Persephones, so this might be our first glimpse of the mysterious hacker.

I would also like to apologize for a lack of updates lately. I will be posting a recap very shortly of what I missed in the last week. Thanks to everyone who emailed me about the recent developments.

Man, it’s really getting serious now, huh?

#Colin 06.19.06

It sure is.. I wonder if they will put the site up again or if something else will happen.

#Rev 06.19.06

I guess we’ll just have to wait and see, hmm?

Yes, I must add…if this were stage three I had to have missed a lot of stuff…I only came into the game on like, the third hack.

I’m on Rachaels side though I’m POSITIVE that “D J Dan” Shut down
The Hanso Foundations website, but all about the confusion I don’t
know who to belive! I think what Rachael is doing is okay, but I’m
all confused about it!

got a theory here, as you can see if you go on the persephone.thehansofoundation.org you will see that there is a — - at the top right of the screen, however, the http://stophanso.rachelblake.com/index2.html has –, this could be some type of morse code or somthing (also if this has already ben published dont blame me ^^)
