Sorry if a repost.

Go to www.yahoo.com and search for anything. It takes you to Baidu page!!! WTF??
EDIT: I AM NOT CRAZY!!
EDIT2:
Happening in South Africa too. According to my supervisor chinese hackers have only partially been able to hack US servers. That's why some of you are not seeing the Baidu page.
EDIT3: Further proof its happening in the US as well

Digital Market Blog said it was able to confirm the hijacking as well.
"In our office there''s about 30 machines ... If you do a search on Yahoo.com (any search) you get redirected to Baidu (as shown below) and shown Chinese results," the analysts from the site wrote.

Well it's working for me in the US.

Reports have been coming in that people trying to reach Google, Yahoo and Microsoft from within China or via Chinese ISPs are being redirected to Baidu.

So unless you are in China, then it should be working.

I'm in LA. I expect all of you to start seeing Baidu page soon. You heard it here first!
