The website of an international prison contractor has been defaced by hackers who replaced the company's home page with a hip-hop homage devoted to former death row inmate Mumia Abu Jamal.
Hackers allied to the loose-knit Anonymous movement claimed responsibility for vandalising the site of Florida's GEO Group Inc., which manages some 60 custodial facilities in Europe, North America, Australia and South Africa.
A call to the GEO Group Inc. was routed to The GEO Group Foundation, a charitable organisation linked to the company. The foundation's Abraham Cohen refused to discuss the attack, asking that questions be submitted in writing to the foundation's Executive Director Pablo Paez. Paez didn't immediately respond to emails seeking comment.
