The Anonymous is
on the warpath. This time, however, the battle is between the
Indonesian and Australian division of the group. In a video posted this
weekend on YouTube where Anonymous Australia left a message for Indonesian hackers, expressed in following words:
- Indonesian, cease attacks on civilian sites in Australia and there will be a cyberwar. "And you do not want that, do you?
[video width="700" height="350" id="iYLq5HpYFwM" type="youtube"] It all started with a newly leaked document by former ex-NSA's tech Edward Snowden revealed that Australian authorities are connected to the American global espionage project PRISM
and had Indonesia as one of its targets. The country, which is the
largest archipelago in the world, is also one of the largest trading
partners of Australia. As an
aftermath of the leaked document, Indonesian hackers from Anonymous
Indonesia declared cyberwar on Australian websites. It was preceded by
attacks on hundreds of websites Australia at random. This cyber war is
predicted to be increasingly fueled emotions hackers from both sides. Yesterday,
the Indonesian hackers crushed down the official website of Australian
Secret Intelligence Agency (ASIS), which is down for two days and still
down at the time of publishing this article. "Stop spying Indonesia,"
said the message left on these sites by Anonymous Indonesia. The
Anonymous Australia, meanwhile, fumed. In the video, the group said in
the video that:
- These
sites are not affiliated with the Australian government and should be
left alone." In the end, there are lists of sites linked to the
Australian government and may be the target of attacks from fellow
Indonesians."
It will be
an important moment to witness which part of Anonymous will back down or
which division of Anonymous will come between Anonymous Australia and
Anonymous Indonesia to put both on common terms in order to avoid cyber
war. As currently, the cyber war is affecting random Australian
citizens.
