I'm putting this question out to the more knowledgeable networking people out there.
Is Al Jazeera (at least their net presence) under a DOS attack?
German website Spiegel Online is reporting that Al-Jazeera.net is under hacker attack.
(
http://www.spiegel.de/kultur/gesellschaft/0,1518,242155,00.html) Here is Babelfish's translation of the relevant section...
"Since the start of the English-language expenditure, which
http://english.al jazeera.net from Monday under be attainable should, the Website is supposed the goal of hacker attacks."
This week, Al Jazeera announced an English version of their news site (
http://english.aljazeera.net). I have not been able to access it even once in two days.
Prior to Tuesday, I was able to access
http://www.aljazeera.net any time I wanted. Not anymore.
Is this Government sponsored hacking?
I find it questionable that CNN and the other corporate media outlets started running Al Jazeera videos more since Tuesday. So, we're able to see what CNN wants us to see, but if we want to go to the source, we are blocked by our own government?
Censorship is taking new forms here. And it sucks.
