Submitted by l33tdawg on Wed, 2011-12-21 09:03
Hackers operating under the name Anonymous launched massive distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks against major Egyptian government websites, including the ones of the president, Egyptian state media, the military site Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) and a site that promotes tourism.
