The hacker group claims attacks on hundreds of government and commercial Websites and urges Chinese citizens to revolt against the government. The hacker collaborative Anonymous reportedly is now turning its sights on Chinese government agencies and enterprises, apparently hoping to foment unrest among Chinese citizens. The group, which now apparently has a presence in China, claims to have hacked into and defaced hundreds of national and local government and business Websites, carrying messages decrying what the hackers say is Chinese government oppression, and with The Who song “Baba O’Reilly” playing in the background in many of the defacements. In one Pastebin post, Anonymous lists the hundreds of sites it claims to have targeted.
