Amazon Admit It - Your Servers Were Ransacked and You Know It Just Like We Do
Wikileaks Revelations
- Q&A: Arrest of Wikileaks' founder
- Cables at a glance
- Wikileaks' struggle to stay online
- US hurdles to prosecuting Assange
WikiLeaks has refused to link itself with Anonymous, saying "we neither condemn nor applaud these attacks".
Online retailer Amazon has said its European websites were temporarily offline because of a "hardware failure".British, French, German, Austrian and Italian sites were down for about 30 minutes on Sunday during a peak pre-Christmas shopping period.The outage occurred during a time of ongoing threats against major sites by pro-Wikileak activists.A group known as Anonymous is targeting firms, including Amazon, that withdrew services from the whistle-blowing site."The brief interruption to our European retail sites last night was due to hardware failure in our European datacentre network and not the result of a [distributed denial of service] attempt," said a spokesperson for the firm.Amazon sites ending .it, .de, .uk, .fr and .at - which are all hosted in Dublin - were unavailable for about half an hour at about 2115 GMT on Sunday, according to a Twitter posting by web monitoring firm Netcraft.However, all servers are now back up and running after a brief delay, the firm says.
Suspended accounts
The outage follows a series of web attacks by Anonymous targeted at corporate websites that had withdrawn services from Wikileaks.Amazon stopped hosting Wikileaks material on its servers on 1 December saying the site was breaking its terms and conditions.As part of its campaign, Anonymous had planned to mount a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack on Amazon on Friday, but publicly abandoned the plans, saying they did not have the "forces"."While it is indeed possible that Anonymous may not have been able to take Amazon.com down in a DDoS attack, this is not the only reason the attack never occurred," read a statement that appeared to be published by the group."After the attack was so advertised in the media, we felt that it would affect people such as consumers in a negative way and make them feel threatened by Anonymous."Simply put, attacking a major online retailer when people are buying presents for their loved ones would be in bad taste."DDoS attacks, which are illegal in the UK, involve overloading a website with high numbers of requests so it stops working.Several Twitter accounts attributed to Anonymous and its campaign have been suspended over the attacks.The group's Operation Payback Campaign has also targeted the websites of Paypal, Mastercard and Visa, as well as the Swedish Prosecutor's website after a case was brought there against Wikileaks founder Julian Assange.Mr Assange is in British custody awaiting an extradition hearing after being accused of sex crimes in Sweden. He denies the charges.Wikileaks has angered the US government by publishing large caches of secret documents online, including US diplomatic cables.The government has written to Wikileaks, saying it believes its actions are illegal, but it has denied putting pressure on firms such as PayPal to withdraw services.
Wikileaks' former second-in-command is gearing up to launch an alternative to the high-profile website.Daniel Domscheit-Berg, who left the site after disagreements with its founder, plans to launch Openleaks in the coming months.The technology, which can be embedded in any organisation's sites, will allow whistle-blowers to anonymously leak data to publishers of their choice.Its founders say it will address problems they had with Wikileaks."We felt that Wikileaks was developing in the wrong direction," Mr Domscheit-Berg told BBC News. "There's too much concentration of power in one organisation; too much responsibility; too many bottlenecks; too many resource constraints."He said that the team did not want the responsibility of deciding what was or was not relevant and what would be good for the organisation as a whole to publish."This is the wrong question and should never be asked."Network effectUnlike Wikileaks, Openleaks will not publish or verify material; leaving that role to newspapers, "NGOs, labour unions and other interested entities"."We are trying to build a community of various organisations that need or have use for anonymously submitted information," former Wikileaks member Herbert Snorrason told the BBC.Mr Domscheit-Berg, said the decision to be a "conduit" rather than publisher was made because of the team's experience at Wikileaks.
Wikileaks website The idea came out of a project developed during the team's time at Wikileaks"That was another constraint we saw - if your website becomes too popular then you need a lot of resources to process submissions," he said.Instead, Mr Domscheit-Berg said the organisation would be a "technology provider", supplying anonymous online drop boxes for organisations."[Openleaks] aims to provide the technological means to organisations and other entities around the world to be able to accept anonymous submissions in the forms of documents or other information," said Mr Domscheit-Berg.This would form a distributed network of submissions pages across the web, powered by Openleaks technology for keeping sources anonymous and documents secure.Whistle-blowers would be able to submit documents to an organisation's site, which would then be available for them to use for an exclusive period, specified by the source."If after that time you choose not to publish the document yourself the document will be shared with the rest of the subscribers in the system," said Mr Domscheit-Berg."If you choose not to publish it, many other parties will receive the document - and we are pretty sure that one of them will publish it."
"We do not think that Openleaks will be in Wikileaks shadow”Daniel Domscheit-BergIn addition to the technology, he said, the organisation will offer legal advice to organisations about dealing with and publishing sensitive material.Initially, the team will work with a handful of small organisations, with the aim of growing the project slowly.Over time, he said, the group hopes the network of participating organisations will become more "diverse, complex and dynamic", which will afford more protection when dealing with sensitive material."With each new entity you are adding more nodes to the network; you're adding more complexity to the network so everyone is protecting everyone else."The result, he said, would be "technically and legally very powerful".
Evolutionary step'
The project was born out of an idea for a "Wikileaks button" that was developed before Mr Domscheit-Berg left the organisation. All of the team behind the project have now left Wikileaks because of disagreements about how the site was run.
Julian Assange Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is currently in British custody awaiting an extradition hearing"One of the main issues we see with Wikileaks today is that it has become too much about the project," said Mr Domscheit-Berg, who said he still supports Wikileaks founder Julian Assange."It has become too much about self-promoting the project and self-promoting people involved with the project which is rather distracting from the content of the documents."Mr Assange, in particular, has been criticised for his high-profile role; something he has said was necessary."I originally tried hard for the organisation to have no face, because I wanted egos to play no part in our activities," he recently told the Guardian newspaper."In the end, someone must be responsible to the public and only a leadership that is willing to be publicly courageous can genuinely suggest that sources take risks for the greater good."One problem Openleaks may face is increased competition amongst a raft of new sites - including Brusselsleaks - for documents from leakers. It may also need to establish its credibility, alongside the highly successful Wikileaks.But Mr Domscheit-Berg does not think this will be a problem."I believe lots of people are aware of some of the issues that Wikileaks has right now and there is already some critical debate."He said the site was already "drowning in contact requests" and that it would be targeting different material"Way more people are sceptical about the direction Wikileaks are heading and see what we are doing as the right step into the future. So, I don't think credibility will be a problem."To build further trust, he said, the group would establish a foundation in Germany to handle and publish its finances.In addition, he said, the model they had chosen to use would mean that Openleaks would rarely be in the spotlight."We're not aiming for any front pages," said Mr Domscheit-Berg. "If anything at all, this organisation is to enable others to do that."It has now launched a website which will detail the evolution of the project before it goes live in the coming months."We do not think that Openleaks will be in Wikileaks shadow," Mr Domscheit-Berg said. "We are a completely different approach. We do not see ourselves as competitors - we are the next evolutionary step."(end of clipping)
Wackers, Crackers, Hackers, and Spooks - All we have to say is Come Out, Come Out Wherever and whoever you are..Clearly if you can get into your account, someone is keeping track of that info; to do who knows what with at this point.
PLEASE - If You were Redirected When you got here, Please Leave Me A Commentand that will tell me how it's effecting my visitor count, and if others are having this problem still, since I cleaned up my page twice in the last 24 hrs.
only a person with inside access COULD leave the cards of those who are deleted from entrecard months ago in a photo to draw interest. that means you have inside backside screenshots from the vault.
This should be a clear warning to Graham Langdon that he needs to look for his problems in His Own House; instead of those who will slap the truth up with no reticence On A Blog ... Or FEAR of Retribution.
Fellow Entrecarders Tell Me What you REALLY Think about this real stank. there is obviously now a need for a serious discussion on how safe is using entrecard. we all know the frontside dangers - so maybe it's time to do a lil backside check-up and post the verdict ?
I Have no idea who sent this to me, since their account was removed from Entrecard By the time I got it.
probably as soon as they started to drop cards today..
check this out - there are clues. some of the blog cards shown in the favs column no longer exist on entrecard; most notibly The Turnip of Power. Hmmmmm ????

I posted this on my Main Blog BadGalsRadio and it got a few comments, so I thought more Entrecarders might be interested in trying to help solve the mystery of the Secret Carder - and the Mystery Drop.
I don't think I feel tempted enough to try to find out who wrote this, as It looks like a trap.
COMMENTS Make Us HAPPY ; )
Here is Mr. Langdon's profile:
http://entrecard.com/details/107811
Notice at the bottom how there are three "blogs" in his name. The only blog in his name that is active is the one to the far left which is the Entrecard blog. "How to NOT get Cancer" and "grahamlangdon.com" have both since been removed.
The Entrecard blog is hardly a blog at all. It is more a lesson in how to not communicate with your base.
So Graham Langdon, blogger? I don't think so.
