In response to WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange’s warrant of arrest issued by the UK government, Anonymous has targeted several government websites for shutdown.
The hackstivist group claims to have launched denial-of-service attacks against the UK Justice Department, the British Prime Minister’s Number 10 website, and the Department of Work and Pension.
Anonymous has dubbed the attack campaign as #OpFreeAssange on its Twitter feed.
The Justice Department’s website was temporarily offline yesterday, assumed to be due to the attacks.
