Anonymous Hacks Orlando Web Site

The hacking group Anonymous has threatened to take down Orlando web sites because of Mayor Buddy Dyers anti-homeless feeding policies. Members of Food Not Bombs were arrested for feeding the homeless in public parks. Dyer hysterically called Food Not Bombs "food terrorists." FNB activist Benjamin Markeson has filed a defamation lawsuit against Dyer.

Orlandofloridaguide.com was the first web site taken down by Anonymous. This statement was released by Anonymous.

"This is a declaration of war," said Anonymous, describing Operation Orlando.

"Anonymous will now begin a massive campaign against you and your city web assets," it added in a message directed at Orlando officials.

Food Not Bombs said they are not affiliated with Anonymous.

Pam Spaulding Has Been Hacked

Blogger Pam Spaulding has been hacked by Astalavista Team. Pam's House Blend is hosted on Soapbox. Other Soapbox sites such RadicalRuss.net, American Liberalism, BeThink.org have been hacked. These hack attacks were sophisticated. The Astalavista Team left this image on the sites they hacked.



Soapbox has announced they are shutting down.

It was a good ride, but it's over.
Thanks for all the fish.

All these hackers messing with our stuff, and we here at SoapBlox have no clue what to do. We don't have enough knowledge, time, money, or care to fix it.

So I hope the Hackers are happy.

If you want the data from your blog, we will get it. But we are not going to try and restore anything.

Consider this the "We're Out of Business" post.

Most of the servers have been taken off line because they were being used to hack and exploit other websites. The hackers install this crap on servers after they get in. SoapBlox's ISP then takes the servers off line.

We do not know when they will come back online.

We do not know if they will come back online.

It is sad how a few bullies can end the hard work Soapbox did to build a community for progressive bloggers. The Astalavista Team hacked into these to show theyt can "destroy online communities." That is it. The same reason a bigger kid pushes a smaller child into the mud, because he can. How sad.

Pam will be moving her site. It is up currently, but who knows for how long.
