JAKARTA – Counter attacks from hackers or pro-Ukrainian hackers are starting to emerge. This is evidenced by the fact that several Russian media websites were hacked on Monday, February 28.
According to a report from Reuters, several official Russian websites have been replaced with anti-war messages and calls to stop Russian President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine.
"Dear citizens. We urge you to stop this madness, don't send your son and husband to a certain death," the message read. "Putin forces us to lie and puts us in danger."
The website of Russia's state news agency TASS, along with news sites rbc.ru, kommersant.ru, fontanka.ru and iz.ru of media outlet Izvestia all experienced outages, with some of those web views displaying the message.
Truce talks between Russian and Ukrainian officials began at the Belarusian border on Monday, February 28, as Russia faces increasing economic isolation four days after it invaded Ukraine.
Russia says its troops have entered and intervened in Ukraine in a "special military operation" to demilitarize the country. Russia's communications regulator has also warned local media and foreign technology companies against what it says are false depictions of Russian activities in material published online.
"We have been isolated from the rest of the world, they have stopped buying oil and gas. In a few years we will live like North Korea," the message continued. "What is this for? For Putin to get into the history books? This is not our war, let's stop him!"
Some Russian media have said Anonymous, the amorphous online activist community, which first attracted global attention about a decade ago, claimed responsibility for the hack.
