The hacktivist group Anonymous today hacked multiple UK government websites (http://www.zdnet.com/blog/security/anonymous-hacks-uk-government-sites-over-draconian-surveillance/11412) over the country's 'draconian surveillance proposals' and 'derogation of civil rights.' At the time of writing, the following websites were taken down: homeoffice.gov.uk, number10.gov.uk, and justice.gov.uk. The group is not pleased with the UK government's plans to monitor Internet users (http://it.slashdot.org/story/12/04/02/2334245/uk-proposing-real-time-monitoring-of-all-communications)
