TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Decentralized international hacktivist
group Anonymous on Saturday (Oct. 29) hacked into the websites of the
Chinese Ministry of Emergency Management and Mino Space to retaliate for
an editing war on Wikipedia in which entries about its activities had
been heavily deleted by alleged Chinese operatives.

In late September, an edit war broke out on the Wikipedia page for
Anonymous member Cyber Anakin, who has hacked government websites,
agricultural management systems, coal mine safety interfaces, nuclear
power plant interfaces, and satellite interfaces as part of "Operation
Wrath of Anakin: No Time to Die." What was originally an extensive entry
for the hacktivist in August had been cut down to a few paragraphs by
October.

The reasons given for the removals included alleged violations of
POV policy, "failed verification," and "unreliable sourced" information.
However, one of the editors who had initiated the deletions, "Chimney
Sweepa," was later tabled to be a sock puppet account, a user
masquerading as someone else for the purposes of manipulation.

Anonymous representative "Allez-opi_omi" told Taiwan News the
collective suspected that the sudden, arbitrary edits were part of a
Chinese influence operation exploiting existing system biases at
Wikipedia. For example, on China's National Day (Oct. 1), Wikipedia user
"Genabab," who was accused by another user of being a "fifty-center"
changed Taiwan's status from country to "partially-recognized country."

On Saturday, the collective raided the Ministry of Emergency
Management of People's Republic of China and posted the compromised menu page for its CMS, followed by 19 other pages containing vandalism, seven forum defacements with photos, and six "extras." There were also three hacks (hacks 1, 2, 3) into the website of Mino Space, a private commercial satellite company, based in Beijing.

Honestly. Hacking a site used for emergencies is kinda fucked up no matter the country.

Of course he was downvoted. The "Finn and Rose Brigade" thinks Snoke, Hux and Kylo Ren will have to clean up the casino and round up the Horse-Dogs^^(c)Lucasfilm after they wreck shit.

All they've actually accomplished is make extra work for a bunch of proles, like all the rest of the "activist movements". They don't have the balls to go after anyone important.

China hacked the Irish health system in 2021 and caused it to go down for months, Covid vaccines and tests were manual for a period, but still ended up being one of the best in the world for vaccinations etc

Sad thing is that people died due to issues with logistics and scheduled operations etc
