Did WikiLeaks bring us into a new era of Info Wars?
)
December 8th, 2010
So some computer hacker supporters of WikiLeaks (not WikiLeaks employees) decided to get back at MasterCard for canceling their terms of service for WikiLeaks money transfers.
MasterCard Corporate web site would not load this morning at 10am.
Apparently the hackers say this is only the beginning…

Now I know there have been numerous other cyber attacks in the past and will be in the future. They go on every day… But private hackers attacking corporate structures, I believe, was for personal monetary gain, or grievances, or just the challenge of doing it. But now…
But now there seems to be A Cause behind it. The hacker has heard the rallying cry and are swarming to the aid of their WikiLeaks affections.
Shall a new era of Info Wars begin, where the gain is not for money, or stealing secrets… But instead, this new Info War seems to be one fought over ethics, truth, liberties… Heaven forbid it becomes a Cyber Jihad.
