Today the Holy See fell victim once again to Anonymous cyber pirates. Just days after the first attack that caused a number of problems on the Holy See’s official website, hackers struck again, with the following vindictive message: “It pains us to tell you that your systems are less safe than you would like to believe because, while the media furore focused on the www.vatican.va blackout, we took the liberty of penetrating your system a little". The main target of the new strike is Vatican Radio.”

 

The Vatican Radio website (www.radiovaticana.org) was the target of this new attack: “It is now a renowned fact that you use equipment whose transmission strength exceeds legal limits by far, and the correlation between exposure to high-intensity electromagnetic emissions and serious illnesses such as leukaemia, cancer and others is also a sad and proven fact. Many citizens unlucky enough to live within range of your repeaters have tried to undertake legal proceedings in light of their declining health conditions. Anonymous cannot tolerate these crimes, which continue to go unpunished, and would like to remind you that you are 'guests' on Italian soil.”

 

The gang’s attacks have intensified in recent days, with police, carabinieri (members of an Italian army corps which is also a police force), the Italian Home Office and government, Trenitalia (Italy’s state-owned railway company) and Equitalia (Italy’s revenue service) bearing the burden.
