Anonymous has been hacking North Korea for several weeks now, sources site.<\/p>\nAnonymous has been hacking North Korea for several weeks now, sources site.<\/p>\n
In the past few days, the attacks have been more focused than ever. Anonymous, saying they are acting as a \u201chacktivist\u201d group, destroyed and defaced the country\u2019s Twitter and Flickr accounts yesterday.<\/p>\n
Some of the tweets and posts make fun of Kim Jon-un, North Korea\u2019s leader. Some of the pictures posted were a bit more serious, and told followers than Jon-un \u201clet his people starve\u201d and \u201cwasted tons of money on useless things.\u201d Most of the photos posted showed Kim Jon-un as a pig. The graphic with \u201cWe are Anonymous\u201d was also posted on both social media webpages.<\/p>\n
Anonymous also allegedly hacked and took control of the North Korean news website, Urminzokkiri.com. The Flickr, Twitter, and news website are all now inactive. Many say the website is down not out of choice, but because Anonymous enjoys inflicting distributed denial of service attacks, which involved spamming a server with so much information that it overloads and goes offline. Wells Fargo and other banks have suffered from similar denial of service attacks in the past few weeks from other hacking groups.<\/p>\n
Anonymous\u2019 members were not shy about telling the world about how they stole the data and accessed North Korea\u2019s Intranet. The key: dialup lines and WiFi repeaters using proprietary frequencies.<\/p>\n
Anonymous says they will continue to hack the country\u2019s websites and government-owned information until North Korea gives in to their demands:<\/p>\n
– N.K. government to stop making nukes and nuclear threats
\n– Kim Jong-Un to resign
\n– Installation of a free direct democracy in North Korea
\n– Uncensored internet access for all the citizens<\/p>\n
Most say that North Korea is unlikely to give in, especially with tensions rising due to its newly declared \u201cstate of war\u201d against South Korea.<\/p>\n
