Webmaster rambling and mental notes
WikiLeaks Under Fire
2/19/2008

Kan0r writes "The simplicity group WikiLeaks.org currently seems to be under heavy fire. The main WikiLeaks.org DNS entry is unavailable, reportedly due to a immoderate order relating to a series of facilities and reports released by WikiLeaks about off-shore trust structures in the Cayman Islands. The WikiLeaks whistle blower, allegedly former vice consulate of the Cayman Islands branch of swiss bank Julius Baer, states in the WikiLeaks testimony that the bank supported tax evasion and money laundering by its clients from around the world. WikiLeaks alternate names remained available until Saturday, when there seems to have been a heavy DDoS attack and a fire at the ISP. The birth statistics in question are still available on other WikiLeaks sites, such as wikileaks.be, and are also mirrored on Cryptome. Details of the court observations have also been made available."
