Anonymous announces a major attack on the Internet

Anonymous announces a major attack on the Internet

A message allegedly published by members of the hacker group "Anonymous" announced a mega-attack that will temporarily cause a complete shutdown of the Internet on March 31!

According to the statement, the attack will be carried out in protest against the introduction of copyright laws, Wall Street, and state elites in general.

A coordinated attack on 13 central servers will reportedly paralyze all Internet traffic.

Although the document published on the "Pastebin" watch really looks like the "official" announcements of this hacker association, there are justifiable reasons to doubt its authenticity.

So far, there is no information about such an attack on the regular channels of the "Anonymous" group, and besides, the question is whether such an attack would be successful at all because it is very difficult to overthrow servers for indirect access to Internet content.

Enlarges the image you hover over by loading the source address of the image . How can it help? Clickbait posts often "trick" users into clicking with an image (in addition to terrible headlines). They place those pictures so that only a part of them is visible on the Facebook wall and just enough to interest your potential. If you want to see the whole thing, you have to click on the link, which is their goal.
