Hackers have reportedly attacked the website of theBritish Home Office, shutting it down for at least one hour on Saturday night.
Anonymous hacked the website in an apparent protest against extraditions of British citizens to the US and "draconian surveillance proposals" by the British government...............
The hacking group appeared to be angry at extradition proceedings against 46-year-old UK citizen Gary McKinnon, who is accused of hacking US military computers.
On Twitter, messages purporting to be from the hacking group, were posted under the name AnonOpUK, saying, "Anonymous is famous. UK Home Office. Maybe you should start to listen to the people." Another message, apparently urging the hackers to continue the attack said: "Keep firing!"
