Virtual alarm: Taringa fans! massive attack launched this Sunday

Users of the portal dissatisfied with the heavy fine, for now in suspense, imposed on the creators of the site were organized to carry out a "cyberattack".

The target: publishers. They plan to "tear down" their web pages. They argue that the court ruling violates the rights of Internet users

The day and time are already set: Sunday, May 22, 12 noon.

The objective: to attack the companies grouped in the Argentine Book Chamber.

The why: revenge for the complaint they promoted for violation of intellectual property and that ended in a suspended fine, for $ 200,000, for the brothers Hernán and Matías Botbol, and Alberto Nakayama, creators of the massive Taringa!

- Publicidad -

In response to the judicial ruling, users of the portal, flagged under the concept of "Anonymous" -a worldwide movement of self-convened that promote the unrestricted circulation of content-, will specify on Sunday a series of actions that, as confirmed to iProfesional.com various experts in computer crimes, will threaten the normal performance of a long list of web portals of firms such as, for example, Ediciones de la Flor, Universidad, Astrea, Gradi and La Ley, among many others, in addition to the website of the Argentine Book Chamber itself.

As detailed by the security specialist Cristian Borghello on his site Segu-Info, the beginning of the call for this imminent attack began by chat and among the arguments to which those who promote this action appeal it is mentioned that "the Argentine judicial system, through the trial of Taringa!, is putting at risk the rights of its citizens on the Internet".

The call "involves 'Anonymous', as part of that defense to "fight for the implications that its failure will have on the future of the Internet in Argentina."

The call, open until a few hours ago, as iProfesional.com could verify, appears blocked since Friday.
