Today WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, wanted in connection with sex-related charges in Sweden, turned himself in to the police in London. And while Assange's personal troubles escalate, so does the online war over WikiLeaks. Last week came the cyber attack against WikiLeaks.org, which hacker "Jester" claimed to have organized.
On his blog, Jester describes himself as a"hacktivist for good" and someone who is "obstructing the lines of communication for terrorists, sympathizers, fixers, facilitators, oppressive regimes and other general bad guys." [Los Angeles Times]
