 WikiLeaks Gets HackedPosted on Nov 28, 2010
WikiLeaks, the website that has provided damning classified material on the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, says it has come under a denial-of-service attack as it prepares to release another batch of secret U.S. documents. In a denial-of-service attack, hackers flood a site with requests for information, effectively shutting it down. —JCL

The same folks who cry about individual freedom to go to war for the sake of the invaded country’s ‘freedom’ are the first to howl about the freedom to publish the truth.

Hack away morons. You can kill computers and you can kill people or put them in jail but you can’t kill the truth. No one ever has. Sooner or later, morons, it all comes out.

Report thisknow DDoS attacks are like the pawns pawn on the chess
board of internet “hacking”, literally you can run it
from your room right now with CMD. The thing that’s
interesting about this is that I imagine this is the
only desperate trick the pentagon can employ and may
have a few thousand computers on the clock all running
DDoS attack to the wikileak IP so who knows how large
scale it is, but over all it’s just kinda weird that
their using something as amature as DDoS.
