Hi
I am new here and was wondering what your thoughts were about the DDOS attack that took place on Wikileaks over the past week. Do you think it was state sponsored?

hmm well it would make sense that its state sponsored as most countries are not happy about the information that has been leaked. However no one can tell and I doubt no one will ever know. maybe it script kiddie who got a bit bored who knows.

Hi James
Yes I know the hacking group were calling themselves "Anti Leaks" - but who do you think is anti the leaking?

I don't think it is some super bright kid who has time on his hands somehow!  But merely my observation :-).

Hope you are having a good day.

Didn't really hear about this. Haven't heard wikileaks in the news for some time either (or I've just been living under a rock). Did they release some information recently?
