Anonymous Takes Down CBS.com And Universal


Taking a shorter break than their last holiday, Anonymous is back at it already. Reports are coming in that they had completely knocked out CBS.com for a good period of time.

This wasn’t your regular DDoS attack, because if you went to CBS.com at the time Anon attacked it, there was nothing except an index page with a single file. Basically, Anonymous gained access to CBS.com and deleted EVERYTHING.

CBS.com has managed to put itself back up but we’ll be on the lookout of Anonymous’ next move. This is going to be interesting. The last time Anon went on a revenge spree, well, the DOJ, RIAA, MPAA, Universal, EMI, FBI and others all got a piece of the takedown fun. [@YourAnonNews, Lockerz]

Update: Looks like they just took down UniversalMusic.com again too!
