#AntiLeaks claims they are behind DDoS attack on Wikileaks

Wikileaks was down around 10 days after massive DDoS attack. WikiLeaks says that they’ve been under attack since revealing TrapWire. But the hacker group called Antileaks claims responsibility for this attack.

They said the attacks were in protest over the role of Julian Assange, who is currently the guest of the Ecuadorian embassy while waiting for his plea for political asylum to be decided.

"I want to make it clear to all the conspiracy theorists out there that we have nothing to do with the United States Government or Trapwire," DietPepsi ,head of the AntiLeaks hacking group said.  "We find it quite humorous to read all these Twitter comments from people who suspect us of being NSA/CIA/FBI/or even WikiLeaks themself,"

"We gave @wlpress a 5 minute advanced notice of our next attack to take down there backup mirror(http://mirror2.wikileaks-press.org) on August 10th. We also gave a 30 minute advanced notice of our attack on the President of Ecuador's website to the german tech publication Gulli . The logs of both servers will show an attack precisely when we said it would occur. These are irrefutable facts. "

"In the end we cannot prove individually to every person that doubts our claims that we are behind these attacks. There are a lot of people who still don't believe we landed on the moon. We feel we have nothing left to prove to anybody."
