According to Sgt. Stryker there is an ongoing conflict on the net with western hackers launching DOS attacks on Jihadi websites.
I know that there is still an ongoing war between Isreali hackers and pro-palestinian webmasters but I gave up screwing with computers in that way years ago. It almost got me expelled from school and caused some pretty severe network downtime over at a neighboring school (3 weeks) - it was only due to the fact that I got on well with the head of IT at my school that I was let off.
I’m years off the current standards (I highly doubt anyone would have as easy a job as I - those were the days of Win98 and really lax server security) so I couldn’t really help out but even if the Feds prefer to use these pages for intelligence gathering I’ve got to say it wouldn’t take much just to make an archive of the site and then tear the bugger down.
I say fair play to the guys on the technological edge of the war of terrorism.
Later
