Cyber Attack on United Wisconsin to Recall Walker

[hue]

United Wisconsin Website Under Cyber Attack
I received this e-mail last night but read it this morning. Its just one of the many assaults in store for us as we work to free ourselves from Walker the Koch puppet!

-An Important Update to Our Supporters-

Dear J.,

Early this afternoon, United Wisconsin's website www.unitedwisconsin.com, was the victim of a cyber attack. It appears this attack may be ongoing. Our web team reports that this attack was coordinated and deliberate.

The attack, which is known as a Distributed Denial of Service Attack, flooded our servers at approximately 2:00pm. At this time the source of this attack is not fully known. However, we are reporting this to the FBI and Wisconsin Attorney General, and taking all the steps we can to ensure this does not happen again.

Clearly this was done to deny the people of Wisconsin access to the recall Walker materials United Wisconsin is trying to provide.

Despite these efforts to again stifle the people's voice, United Wisconsin and its partners are not shaken. The efforts to recall Scott Walker and Rebecca Kleefisch are continuing as planned.

It is our intention to continue as planned to provide you with a link to the recall petitions just after midnight tonight. Please bear with us as we attempt to fix this problem. Some external pages associated with our website are still up and running, and are not affected by this outage.

In the meantime, should you need to contact United Wisconsin please email [email protected].
