Country of Georgia Hit By Massive Cyberattack
An anonymous reader quotes a report from the BBC: A huge cyber-attack has knocked out more than 2,000 websites -- as well as the national TV station -- in the country of Georgia. Court websites containing case materials and personal data have also been attacked. In many cases, website home pages were replaced with an image of former President Mikheil Saakashvili, and the caption "I'll be back." The origin of the attack is not yet known. BBC Caucasus correspondent Rayhan Demytrie said people on social media were speculating that Russia might be behind it.
