Political websites attacked

The websites of the PP, CiU and PNV collapsed yesterday evening under the weight of a denial of service (DDoS) attack by the group ‘Anonymous’, only the PSOE website being accessible.

The cyber attack began just after 18:00 and by 19:00 the sites were down, overwhelmed by the massive amount of data requests.

The protest is related to the proposed ‘Ley Sinde’, law relating to the downloading of material, which forms part of the Law of Sustainable Economy.
