In the latest salvo from hacktivists working in support of Ukraine, an Anonymous-linked group has defaced a website belonging to Russia’s Space Research Institute (IKI) and leaked files that allegedly belong to the Russian space agency Roscosmos. As reported by Vice, hackers appear to have breached one subdomain of the IKI website, although other subdomains remain online. The compromised part of the site relates to the World Space Observatory Ultraviolet project (WSO-UV), a project similar to the Hubble Space Telescope and planned for launch in 2025.

A popular Twitter account tied to the loosely organized Anonymous movement shared details Thursday morning and attributed the action to a group known as v0g3lSec.

all hacktivists are criminals and most of them are leftist, anti-capitalist, anarchist radicals

I'm sure some are, some are good guys and some are just a-holes.

Hoo-ray!

they bring no solutions, just violence

So in reality you're equating leftists and anarchists with violence. Wow, what a generalization. OK, I understand your politics now.

I'm out.
