US Government Attacks Wikileaks


Whistleblowing website Wikileaks is currently the victim of a massive distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack, just hours before it was due to release embarrassing US Government secrets.

According to media reports the website has obtained more than 3 million sensitive documents, relating mainly to US international relations. Apparently US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is frantically phoning her foreign counterparts pre-empting any fall out when the documents are published.

The timing of this cyber attack is entirely coincidental, I'm sure!
