Interpol's website appears to have been the victim of a cyber-attack after the international police agency announced the arrests of 25 suspected members of the hacking activist group Anonymous in Europe and South America.


Bernd Rossbach, Interpol's acting executive director of police services, said: "This operation shows that crime in the virtual world does have real consequences for those involved."


Cyber-attacks by hackers linked to Anonymous have become a fairly regular occurance.


  • Do you think this is a serious matter or are they concerning and wasting too much money?
  • Is it serious enough to go to prison or what should governments do about this increasing problem?
