Hackers ‘Anonymous’ to attack IMF website over Greece (http://www.keeptalkinggreece.com/2011/06/02/hackers-anonymous-to-attack-imf-website-over-greece/)
Hackers group “Anonymous” declared Wednesday an online attack against the International Monetary Fund over the strict conditions imposed by its bailout for Greece. A tweet from “Anonymous Operations,” using the tag ‘Operation Greece,” called followers to amass on line at the IMF’s website in an apparent attempt to overwhelm it and shut it down.
Anonymous posted a tweet on Wednesday urging followers to set their sites on the IMF website. “#OperationGreece: Target: http://www.imf.org,” (http://www.imf.org,%E2%80%9D) the tweet read. But it gave no time for the launch of the action, called a distributed denial of servicd (DDoS) attack.
According to Huffington Post (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/01/anonymous-imf_n_869914.html),
Anonymous released a missive on May 25 (http://e-worldwar.com/%7E/) condemning the Greek Government and the IMF for accepting the loan without letting citizens vote on the agreement, and for subjecting the people of the country to “prolonged poverty and a dramatic decrease in their standards of living.”
“The people of Greece have been left with no other option than to take to the streets in a peaceful revolution against the economic tyrants that are the IMF,” Anonymous wrote.
The tweet linked to a website criticizing the austerity plans imposed on Athens by the 110 billion euro joint European Union-IMF rescue.
The IMF said it was aware of the call.
“We are aware of the threat, and have taken appropriate action,” said IMF spokesman Bill Murray.
Anonymous is a loosely knit collective of individuals who launch attacks aimed at troubling the online operations of its targets. Targets have included the former Egyptian government, the Italian government, Iran, and companies which withdrew services to WikiLeaks like Visa and Mastercard.
In a typical DDoS attack, a large number of computers are commanded to simultaneously visit a website, overwhelming its servers, slowing service or knocking it offline completely.
