Attack In Cyberspace
Denial of service brings down several Hosting Matters sites.
To be honest, while I'm familiar with all of the sites on this list, there are only a few that I visit with regularity and true frequency. I also wouldn't choose some of the language that Michelle Malkin uses to describe the situation (which is partly why I don't visit some of these sites more often).
HOWEVER, I absolutely agree that attacks such as these are outrageous; they threaten both the health of free expression and the 'net; and in general I have an absolute burr up my you-know-what about hackers, their 'tudes, and what I perceive as less than rigorous efforts to nab and punish them. (Give me some credit: Yes, I KNOW there are some categories of "good"hackers, but that list is very limited, in my book.)
So I post this in solidarity and in the spirit of "... defend your right to the death ... ," as I would for any group of bloggers under similar attack, if I know about it.
