Feds Hunt for Anonymous Hackers Who Crashed Toilet Paper Website


Adrian Chen—The evil, teaparty-funding Koch Brothers do not appreciate their websites being bombarded by hackers. The FBI is targeting people possibly connected to a February Anonymous attack on Koch Industries websites, including a brutal assault on their powerful bathroom tissue manufacturing arm.

According to an affidavit obtained by the Smoking Gun, the FBI have identified 12 "targets" possibly linked to an Anonymous attack on, among other Koch Industries-owned websites, Quiltednorthern.com. The attack was part of "Operation Wisconsin," meant to protest the Kochs' effort to push Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's union-busting bill, as befits evil Republican corporate overlords.

Gotta feel for the Anonymous partisans who could end up booked for taking down a toilet paper company. At least crashing the CIA sounds sexy.
