• 'anonymous' retaliates for CCP DDoS of Taiwan during Pelosi visit

    From Big Bad Bombastic Bob@21:1/5 to All on Thu Aug 4 09:41:15 2022
    While Pelosi spends time in Taiwan and effectively recognizes their
    legitimacy, the CCP makes threats and apparently DDOS'd them

    https://www.theregister.com/2022/08/04/taiwanese_military_reports_ddos_in/

    "Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense confirmed it was hit by a DDoS
    attack on Wednesday in what has been an eventful week for the island
    nation, US-Sino relations, and semiconductors."

    However, Anonymous defaced a CCP web site. This link points to the
    intarweb wayback machine where their defacement is still archived
    (warning it tries to download 3 PDF files, though they seem harmless)

    Hm. Mixed messages. I'm not really a fan of Anonymous, never really have
    been, but... CCP... yeah.
