Notice how the headline makes it sound like they've already been attacked but when you scroll down you can see they're just getting all paranoid and defensive. Also, their embedded links are totally useless... :rofl:

Hackers Target WikiLeaks 'Enemies': Mastercard, Twitter, Paypal, Even FoxNews.com
Published December 08, 2010
| FoxNews.com

=snip=

Most of the hacks to date have been orchestrated through the use of a free, downloadable tool called LOIC; short for "low orbit ion cannon," the tool enables ordinary people to participate in targeted assaults on websites. The http://anonops.net/anonops/Current_target">current target is identified on the Operation: Payback website, while a separate page lists a http://anonops.net/anonops/Target_suggestions">wide range of potential targets. The group lists the BBC, FoxNews.com, CNN.com, Amazon, and others as potential targets.

But Wisniewski is quick to point out that sites currently in the crosshairs are easy targets; a larger site like FoxNews.com or the Washington Times would be hosted on a wide range of servers, and consequently much harder to take down.

5. All that needs to happen to end this
is for Obama to cease his prosecution of Wikileaks.

Until that happens, fire away!
