Hackers deface websites of local government units

The hackers are at it again.

Collectively known as Anonymous Philippines, they “defaced the online presence of local government units,” according to Philstar.com. This they did by putting a black screen, a logo and a message about the right to freedom of expression.

They quoted Article III, Section 4 of the Constitution and also said, “What happened to the law? Are all laws meant to be broken? Are they made to fool people, deprive them of their rights in exchange of what we believe as Heavens for Politicians?”

Here is a list of the sites that they defaced:

Bukidnon government website

Bolinao government website

Calasiao government website

Luna government website

National Maritime Polytechnic website

National Book Development Board website

Bureau of Customs website

Department of Health’s SmokeFree campaign

Several departments of the Philippine National Police

Municipality website of Gregorio del Pilar in Ilocos Sur

Municipality website of Anilao in Batangas

Municipality website of Apayao Province

On the other hand, here are the sites that had been restored as of press time:

Pilipinas Anti-Piracy Team website

Philippine Nuclear Research Institute website

Cebu Port Authority website

Metro Manila Development Authority website

Optical Media Board website

National Telecommunications Commission website
