In a recent blog post, we discussed how major American credit card companies are freezing transactions involving the Wikileak company. Wikileak allegedly disclosed classified information about U.S. intelligence and, in doing so, breached U.S. privacy laws.

Now, Wikileak supporters are allegedly firing back by downloading an extremely large amount of spam software and sending it at hostile businesses in an effort to collect data. It is also alleged that Wikileak supprters are hacking into government systems and bringing them down altogether.
