CloudFlare Helps Save Wikileaks Bacon
Wikileaks' website is up again after over a week of denial of service attacks, though as of this writing I'm still seeing many errors on the site. On its Twitter account Wikileaks credited CloudFlare, a company that provides a web security service, for helping the organization get its site back online.Earlier this month Wikileaks resumed publishing e-mails acquired (yes, illegally) by the hacktivist group Anonymous from the private intelligence firm Stratfor Global Intelligence. The latest batch concern Trapwire, the sinister sounding surveillance product from private company called Abraxis. Trapwire collects video and other surveillance from multiple sources in a central location for analysis using facial recognition algorithms and other techniques (see here for more details).Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/TKTiacUPb48/
