RIAA Goes Offline, Joins MPAA As Latest Victim Of Successful DDoS Attacks
In an offense called “Operation Payback,” members of the Internet collective Anonymous have organized what seems to be anti-anti piracy movement. Dubbed by Torrent Freak to be the “protest of the future” the group has launched in the past 36 hours DDoS attacks on the MPAA, anti piracy sites and today both RIAA.com and RIAA.org.
The sites are both currently offline (they went down 5 minutes before schedule), as people continue to mobilize through the 4Chan message boards and Twitter, using their LOIC (Low Orbit Ion Cannon) DDoS tools to initiate independent attacks, and continuing to make what would seem unlikely for a group of people called Anonymous, celebratory tweets.
