GVF — The hacking collective “Anonymous” has launch distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks against the website of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The group’s “Operation Iran” was set to begin at 1pm local time on Friday and is an online protest of what the group called in a press release “chains of oppression, tyranny and torture.” The attacks were intended to coincide with commemorations on the 32nd anniversary of the Islamic Revolution.
