Show HN: Planning a scheduled Attack With Facebook Events (facebook.com)
1 point by tzury on March 20, 2013 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment


This is a web attack (DDoS and *Injection) planned for tonight (local time at middle east), against Israeli Banks and governmental sites.

It is scheduled in accordance to the president Obama visit to Israel.

We are all prepared, at least our clients (Reblaze), yet, I really hope not too many people used the "report" feature of Facebook to ask to close this down, given social networks are great resource for our intelligence "department".

In any case, just wanted to bring to your attention that today's attack are no longer organized (only) in hidden forums and esoteric IRC rooms. Rather, on Facebook and twitter, under the radar.
