China Fires E-Salvo at US Government.
Chinese cyber-terrorists, or at least, hackers with a working
knowledge of Mandarin, have attacked US administration web sites,
apparently in retaliation for the bombing of the Chinese embassy in
Belgrade, Yugoslavia. According to mi2g, a London, UK internet disaster
recovery service, web servers at the Energy Department, Interior
Department and National Park Service were forced off-line "for some
time" as administrators worked to clear them of graffiti messages
in English and Chinese.
