I wonder why it is so easy to take down these sites, as I am under the impression that Anonymous consists mostly of script kiddies. Are these attacks DDoS? That shouldn't be too hard to arrange if you're with enough people + perhaps some unemployed botnets.
- sorbus 15y agoYeah, they're all DDoSes. Look into the Low Orbit Ion Cannon; it used to be (and may still be) the tool that they used. The hacks that are attributed to Anonymous seem to be mostly be the work of a small core of actual hackers who either use Anonymous as cover or support its ideology.
- tomjen3 15y agoIt wouldn't be difficult for anyone here to make the sites much more difficult to protect but these are government sites which means they likely have incapable people working who are tied down by sixteen layers of bureaucracy.
