in less than 3 mins from this post go visit amazon.com or payal.


edit:
So they're not targeting paypal's website, just api.paypal.com so it affects all the sites that rely on their payment system.

TOP OF THE AGENDA: WikiLeaks Supporters Launch Cyberattacks

A group of hackers defending WikiLeaks brought down the Swedish government's website (Telegraph) for several hours overnight amid warnings they will attack again. The group, which calls itself Anonymous (AFP), also claimed responsibility for closing down the sites of MasterCard and Visa for awhile yesterday after the two firms suspended payments to WikiLeaks, and for attacking the site of a Swiss bank that closed an account of site founder Julian Assange, who is being held in Britain on Swedish charges of sexual assault.

A spokesman for Anonymous (Guardian) said the approximately thousand-member group is "quite a loose band of people who share the same kind of ideals" and wish to be a force for "chaotic good." Over the past several days, WikiLeaks' primary Web address was deactivated, its PayPal account was frozen, Facebook and Twitter (FT) removed accounts by run by WikiLeaks "hacktivists" and more, but WikiLeaks ability to publish online is stronger than ever, as the number of "mirror" sites (WashPost) -- clones of WikiLeaks' main contents pages - has grown to more than one thousand.

Analysis:

The relationships that will suffer most from WikiLeaks include many that the neoconservatives, who shaped the Bush administration's foreign policy, were most willing to risk, writes Robert Wright in this New York Times blog.

Julian Assange's arrest on questionable sexual assault charges and the attack on Mastercard's website indicate the WikiLeaks episode is becoming a conflict between Western governments and internet-based anarchists, writes Gideon Rachman (FT).

CFR President Richard Haass writes in Newsweek that State Department leaks offer enough lessons for a course in foreign policy.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange argues in this op-ed (TheAustralian) that his group should be protected not attacked.

Hey Ry, if you're going to bring this out in a video form, maybe the thing to do is at the beginning make a declaration of the day and time and that you're the first to put these pieces together. That should make it harder for others to just scoop your work.

I'm the one who's been posting the comments on the last couple of videos in intervals of the day and time with the view count and like/dislikes. If you don't mind I'll keep doing this. People don't believe me when I tell them that someone at YouTube/Google is monkeying with the counters to keep the videos from rising in status. It's really cheap shit, but this really is an info war (I resent that Jones co-opted that phrase).

I don't know if any others of you feel the way I do, but I'm really concerned that the days of anarchy on the internet are coming to a close soon. I can't really qualify that right now, but I suspect that this ramping up of the cyber attacks on blue chip institutions is going to spell sweeping new laws for internet policing.

rumors are they're going to pursue .gov sites.

So you're that guy thank you funk for posting the time stamps. YT has a uploaded day (i think) anyway i put it together April 2010 I was able to prove it about a week ago. Part of why I am waiting for radio is I am too lazy with my dyslexic self to write up a long article. I'll just have to to a video or audio anyway because that is was reaches the most people.
