Gene Simmons battles Anonymous group after new DDoS attacks
October 21, 2010 No CommentsKiss bassist Gene Simmons has started an unwise war of words with the shadowy anti-copyright group believed to be behind a recent spate of DDoS attacks on industry organisations.
During the high-profile attacks a fortnight ago, Simmons’ personal website and that of a record company he runs were successfully targeted by the so-called Anonymous anti-copyright group associated with the 4Chan message board.
The group picked on a variety of industry targets, but Simmons recent comments on piracy probably made him a target too good to ignore.
