NATO persecution update

Hackers claimed yesterday that they had hacked NATO primary servers including nato.int. Read, this is not the library where 11,000 often amateurish passwords were used by Military, NSA and other personnel accessing the library. In that case the library was maintained by a third party.

In the most recent intrusion hackers have taken over the nato.int network. As a demonstration they posted a couple of thousand random files on to the internet along with some admin logins.

Protesting the continued financing and developement of nuclear weapons by NATO member states is the reported reason. The hackers highlighted how insecure even the most secured systems really are.
