After becoming the victim of an effective Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack on Sunday, the controversial and influential Wikileaks has decided to move their operation to Amazon’s EC2 cloud computing platform.
"if your father ‘loses’ we think it is much more interesting if he DOES NOT conceed"
It looks like WikiLeaks become the recent target of hacking group called OurMine.
Charges could include conspiracy, theft of government property, or violating the Espionage Act, according to The Washington Post.
I hope Wikileaks continues to deliver the information the American public is asking for
"To convey information with intent to interfere with the operation or success of the armed forces of the United States or to promote the success of its enemies. This was punishable by death or by imprisonment for not more than 30 years or both."
The only issue is it is yet to be determined if the enemy has gained this type of advantage from these leaks. But there are so many ways to make this guy disappear, especially since he is revealing information that OTHER countries do not want revealed.
It is not about America's restraint, but what about the restraint (or lack thereof) of other nations that have been offended by this? Mercenaries work for cheap, that's all I'm saying. This guy will be lucky to live another 5 years.
