Webcameron.info spoof site mocks Tory leader

Conservative Party leader David Cameron's video blog has attracted the attention of cyber-squatters.
Webcameron.org.uk, which features Cameron's blog and regular video updates, was launched earlier this week.
UK Independence Party supporters, however, have set up a spoof site at Webcameron.info.
The site copies the style of Cameron's official site, but links to a clip from Armando Iannucci's BBC comedy Time Trumpet which shows Cameron copying Tony Blair's speeches and mannerisms.
The domain record for Webcameron.info shows that it was registered on 30 September, the same day that Cameron's official site was announced. The registrant is listed as 'Ceadda Admin' from an organisation known as UKIPhome.
"Politicians are just as vulnerable to online threats as film stars or any major brand," said Jonathan Robinson, chief operating officer at domain registrar NetNames.
"One of the first steps in setting up a new website is checking the availability not only of your desired domain name, but of alternatives including the .com and .co.uk versions.
"Unfortunately, in this instance, David Cameron has seen his effort to harness the power of the internet stumble at one of the very first hurdles."
