Multiple independent media denounces cyberattack
- The media El Salto, La Marea, The Last Hour, Arainfo and Kaos on the Net have denounced the sexual assault suffered by young people. The first of them detected the aggression on 19 November and La Marea insists that he has spent days under the attack. The media believe that this is an ideological attack.
The attack that El Salto has suffered is known as DDoS. By entering multiple IP and using bots, the server falls with the waves of information. Requests for information have been made via the URL elsaltodiario.com/capitalismo of the aggressors.
Both The Jump and The Tide are hosted on the Node 50 server.
El Salto has pointed out that he is valuing going to court because it has been “an intolerable attack on freedom of expression”. And he adds in the news of the web: “We will not tolerate any violence against independent information or our media.”
Last Minute Director Dina Bousselham Eldiario.es has informed the publication that her media has been attacked in the days. By Tuit, it states the following: "This is a new mechanism that the powerful have to end freedom of expression. Where are the press associations to denounce it?”
The director of La Marea, Magada Bandera, prefers to speak cautiously, but they are convinced that it has been an ideological attack “for the kind of web they have attacked and for the date chosen to do so, on November 20, the anniversary of Franco’s death”.
We have spent more than 10 days in @LUH_news suffering a DDoS. And since yesterday, the companions of @ElSalto Diario @lamarea_com @kaosenlarednet @node 50 are also being attacked. Cyberattacks are the new mechanism of the powerful to end freedom of expression. (Continued)
