Anonymous hacks Gabon government sites

Anonymous hackers have claimed to have brought down 70 government and other official websites in Gabon. The Anonymous hackers collective said the move is part of its campaign against dictatorships. On 28 of October, several government sites including the ministries of communications and the civil service were inaccessible.


 According to Gabon’s agency for digital infrastructure, the administration had been hit by a denial of service attack. The agency claims 60 of 102 websites were taken offline for a couple of hours. The bureau also added that it will take judicial action against anyone found to be involved in the attack.
