Indian hacker shoots down the RAAF

AN INDIAN HACKER broke into the Royal Australian Air Force website early this week and threatened the Aussie Government.

Apparently attacks on Australian Government websites have become a hobby for Indian hackers who are fuming about the recent increase in racist attacks down under.

It is starting to look like beating up Indian students has become a definition of a good night out for Aussie bigots and no one expects the Government to do anything about it either.

According to the Sydney Morning Herald Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's assurances that the incidents were being thoroughly investigated have been covered with a liberal dose of mocking.

The Aussie Department of Defence confirmed that the hack took place between Monday and Tuesday, forcing it to pull the entire RAAF website offline. The site has now been restored.

No one is saying who carried out the attack, but the national Indian news service Timesnow.tv reported that the message warned the government to stop attacks on Indian students or else face further cyber-attacks.

The bloke who hacked the site named himself Atul Dwivedi and said, "This is a warning message to the Australian government. Immediately take all measures to stop racist attacks against Indian students in Australia or else I will pawn [sic] all your cyber properties like this one."

Aussie Government websites are mostly on separate servers and this hack did not get past the webpage. Nothing to see here move along now please.
