. More or less, and we have learned what Wikileaks. And it is becoming clear who is against him. But who the hell are they pulling down the pages of companies that withdraw their services to the organization Assange? PayPal, Visa, Mastercard, EveryDNS, Amazon and the Swiss bank PostFinance been expelled in the last week of their clients to Wikileaks, causing serious problems for the organization. Their boycott has not gone unpunished. On Monday Paypal and PostFinance were lying by a computer attack. Mastercard has fallen today.
There have been other less high-profile attacks (a Swedish prosecutor, the vicious web of Senator Lieberman, the lawyers of the women who reported to Assange ... even went for a split page for saying Sarah Palin Assange should be hunted as a terrorist). And more shares. Twitter may even fall because of accusations of manipulating trending topics against Wikileaks.
The authors of the attacks themselves Anonymous. "Although we have no affiliation with Wikileaks too, fighting for the same: we want transparency (in our case on coyright) and opposed to censorship. The attempt to silence Wikileaks is a big step toward a world where we can not say what they think or express how we feel. We can not let this happen, and that's the reason I find out who is attacking Wikileaks and therefore who is trying to control our world ", have said online.
is easier to say what they are not members of Anonymous: hackers are not (at least not all) are not an organized group, are not consistent in their purposes, leaders do not recognize or have a fixed membership or specific targets, or belong to a particular country. Nor do I believe that the sensitive term "cyber-activist group" describes them very well given his methods and his tendency to mischief (today defend to Wikileaks, but a few days soaking Tumblr by modern and copy them memes). We talked about them and their house mother, 4chan, in this blog in October, when they threw their websites SGAE and the English Ministry of Culture:
"4chan.org forum is the second largest in the world with six million users, a thug crazy and space in which no one uses your name. Accused by many to be a bunch of wimps have created a culture and own language so closed that the first times someone enters it understands nothing. When they agree to do something they can flood the YouTube porn, hack mail from Sarah Palin, abused cat rescue , back into fashion to Rick Astley, founder appointed man of the year in TIME or try to send to Justin Bieber on tour to Korea. Del Norte. They are behind many of the strange news that we read in the media about internet.
Born into 4chan, Anonymous is the name of those who mounted the DDOS attacks, but they are wrong who think that is an organization in the traditional sense (...) The "group" became known in January 2008 when 4Chan declares war on Scientology after a controversial Tom Cruise video. They threw the web by the usual method, but also left the virtual environment by thousands of threatening calls and visiting venues disguised with masks inspired by the comic "V for Vendetta." The Wikipedia talks more about them. "
Despite its lack of structure in the traditional sense, Anonymous is very effective. It is estimated that Operation Payback had caused until November 23 to 37 days of inactivity, some of the most important sites in the audiovisual and antidescargas. This operation is one that has changed its goals to become Assange operation to avenge the attacks belonging to Mastercard, PayPal and EveryDNS. (Its development has been very well monitored by security company Panda English).
Anonymous members usually gather around a chat, they discuss strategies and set goals. After distributing leaflets, with a good dose of joke-or post ads on their intentions, often in 4chan. Finally, all at once, send a DDOS attack which is the 'tomb' of the websites by launching thousands of connections per second through computers all over the world against the servers that are hosted on that page, which is technically very difficult to resist but very easy to arrange. It sounds sophisticated, but in reality anyone can download the software needed to join a DDOS attack by Anonymous. That is, anyone can become a member of Anonymous at a time with little computer knowledge by following this link and follow directions. Twitter attacks have been attributed to MasterCard, the company recognized more or less in a terse statement.
Occasionally, some members by Anonymous gave an interview to any means, but always in that spirit that characterizes hive. The New York Times has spoken today with Gregg Housh, a member of Anonymous who had participated in previous actions and they confirmed that this was the first time the group had enough power to shoot down a company the caliber of Mastercard. "They have not changed our tactics this time," he says, "but there's a lot more support and so many people doing that sites like these are falling." The Guardian has spoken to such a "coldblooded" a twentysomething who has defined the group as "a band of people who share the same kind of ideals" and wants to be a force to the "rather chaotic." "I hope the future of the protests is ACTION. No walking in circles with useless signs that everyone ignores," said another of them at the Panda blog a couple of months. Anonymous
the enemy without head and name it as one of the biblical slogans "we are legion" seems a worthy protagonist of a story as fascinating as Wikileaks. At the moment your website is so fall like Mastercard, because they, like Wikileaks, are also victims of those who launch DDOS attacks. Who will be next to fall? Pets bets.
Updated 21:30. No one maintains a blog updated these times. As he was to publish, Anonymous has identified a new target, neither more nor less than VISA, which will be under attack in less than an hour. If they manage to throw it be done with VISA and Mastercard, in addition to two of the best safeguards in the world have a beautiful symbolic value.
Updated 22:05. Visa.com has fallen.
