Anonymous threatens China, HK
Anonymous threatens China, HK, Anonymous, the nebulous online activist group that uses hacking to further causes it supports, has threatened a major blackout of Chinese and Hong Kong government websites.
Beijing: Anonymous, the nebulous online activist group that uses hacking to further causes it supports, has threatened a major blackout of Chinese and Hong Kong government websites, and to leak tens of thousands of government email address details.
The group, under the banner of 'Operation Hong Kong' or '#OpHongKong' and '#OpHK' on Twitter, said on Friday it will launch a mass effort against Chinese government servers to bring down their websites via Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on Saturday.
DDoS attacks attempt to cripple networks by overwhelming them with Internet traffic.
"Here's your heads up, prepare for us, try to stop it, the only success you will have will be taking all your sites offline," an Anonymous statement posted online said. "China, you cannot stop us. You should have expected us before abusing your power against the citizens of Hong Kong."
Pro-democracy demonstrations in Hong Kong have swept up tens of thousands of protesters over the past 11 days, which have seen the use of tear gas, violent clashes and mass disruptions to business and traffic as people campaign for the right to democratically elect the Asian financial hub's leader.
