- Hours after the US airstrike on Iranian territory, Iranian-backed hackers took down US President Donald Trump’s social media platform.
- Users were struggling to access Truth Social in the early morning following the alleged hack.
- As the US continues to insert itself into the ongoing Iran-Israel conflict, the US government believes more cyberattacks could happen.
Unclear from the article but, while a bit pedantic, this sounds more like it was potentially a DDoS attack rather than a proper “hack”.
313 Team is an Arabic-interest hacker collective, aligned with Iran, Palestine and Iraq, they reportedly used a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack against Truth Social.
The article seems pretty clear to me. Maybe it was updated?
It feels weird to be in support of the goals of an Iranian hacker group.
Its like watching two shitty people have an argument.
What did Iran do? Seems like all the shitty is on one side.
Iran is known for its barbaric treatment of women who refuse the forced muslim dress code. They are a equally corrupt government. No good people involved at the upper levels. SSDD.
While there are religious extremists in Iran, their level of influence on Iranian culture is not anywhere near what you’re saying. You’re just repeating western propaganda.
They did have a controversial new dress code law that was supposed to go into effect at the end of last year, but it was blocked for being to extreme and vague.
However, my state just forced a brain dead woman to incubate a baby against the family’s will. So I’m inclined to agree with those saying the religious extremists exercise greater control in the US than Iran, and by your standards that means they should bomb us. Because I guess you think killing people is equal to freeing them.
You are stretching that one out. I don’t support Israel any more than I support Iran. They are both trash.
You’re repeating Israeli lies. So you’re either surreptitiously supporting Israel, or you’re serving as a useful idiot.
Yeah the US/hasbara propaganda tools are out in full force.
Sure this cunt is one of themdeleted by creator
LOL
The literal hasbara operative excuse to excuse them for genociding those misanthrophic barbarian Palestinians.
Really, you’re all so boring and unimaginative.
Must be tiring defending the many many warcrimes from USSA/pissrahell.
Glad you’re getting youe ass kicked and turning into Gaza yourself, it warms my heart.SSDD? Same shit, different dictator - I like it
So if the US killed those women, problem solved? I don’t get your logic.
You try using logic. I didn’t say anything of the sort. You came up with that yourself.
“Hacker group”.
What a joke. Any kid with a credit card can unleash a ddos attack on a website.
An irrelevant website none the less. If that pile of shit goes down then the entire world benefits.
Not really. Most people around the world are pretty much in the same boat. The “leaders” of governments try to propagandize differences, but everyone is living the same shitty existence. Elites vs poors across the globe. Occasionally you get groups that are extremely radical, but it’s not specific really to any country (We see a lot of out of the ME and Africa mostly due to prolonged Colonial abuse, admittedly.)
Might be smart for Iran to just attack trump’s businesses as retribution for the bombings; if they attack the military, we’ll surely get pulled into another war, but just going after trump’s businesses will probably avoid a military response and maybe will make republicans come around to the fact that he should have divested himself from his businesses when he became president.
going after trump’s businesses will probably avoid a military response
More likely, it makes the poor baby (-hands) cry and throw a tantrum. Being the malignant narcissist he is, he thinks the resources of the United States government are entirely at his disposal. With that in mind, he’s absolutely going to demand a military response to any attacks on his businesses.
Whether saner heads prevail, all we can do is hope.
Yeah agreed, he’s absolutely going to demand a military response to any attacks on his business, but maybe that’s enough to divide the republicans in congress and they’ll start to rein him in. Still going to take a lot for them to develop the balls to stand up to him, but might be good for us if Iran just goes after his businesses.
With any other president I’d agree but this is Trump. A venal and petty man who wouldn’t think twice before using the country’s soldiers and even nuclear weapons to defend his sense of pride
Do twitter next.
Fuck it, take down the entire internet
It’s been tried. A huge percentage of the internet runs on Amazon web services… And a massive ddos attack on that barely bumped it beyond the level of holiday shopping.
To get anywhere on “taking down the internet” they’d probably have to physically take out many sites across the globe.
You say this like the hour all major SAAS went down 2 weeks ago was nothing. MILLIONS lost in business hours is not nothing.
Who gives a fuck about the travails of corporations on the internet?
The entire capitalist world only cares about that.
Feeling concern for the welfare of a corporation is a lot like caring for a lion or some other large predator. You don’t want to see it suffer but you know that it could turn on you at any moment, when it’s convenient for them.
Not even sure why/were you’re even taking this. They said a major outage was no worse than a website being overwhelmed by shoppers. I pointed out it’s in fact waaayyy worse. I don’t give a fuck about the corporations lost time.
Sea cables are probably the most vulnerable point of the internet. There are comparatively few of them (on the order of a few hundreds), they are long, and most of their length is not guarded at all. The only reason I can think of, why nobody has targeted them at large is that it would also cut of the attacker.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
We have a president who issues fascistic edicts from the toilet and then phrases them like a Karen in her first term on her HOA or Condo board.
Lol. Lmao, even
Small fries given the proved concept behind the colonial pipeline hack
It seems like they just did us all a favor.
I bet it’s the US.
They’re already starting the 💀Iranian sleeper cell terrorists!!!😱 scaremongering in the press.
These kinds of reports in the media are the first step in a known pattern of priming and nudging to rally up the public for another war.Iran is kinda goated for this not gonna lie!
I’ll bet Donakd Trump is very upset!
isitdown reports its been down for over five days, which is quite pleasant.
The best hacking. Everyone knows it. Everyone says it.
Lmfao
