Spanish Police Website Attacked Via DDOS

In response to recent arrests, a DDOS (distributed denial-of-service) attack was initiated and took down the Spanish Police website for several hours. The arrests were of 3 alleged members that attacked the Sony Playstation Network back in April – which took the network down for almost 2 months.

Anonymous responded by saying “They did not arrest any core group, because we don’t have a core group.”
