http://www.zone-h.org/en/news/read/id=4225/ Siegfried www.zone-h.org admin 05/12/2004 Famous Brazilian newspapers have been informed that a new hacking group composed of worldwide individuals (from Brazil, China, Hong Kong and Russia) has declared cyberwar on the United States of America. Its name is Hackers Against America (HAA) and their web site is hosted on a Russian server. According to what is written on the main page, they plan to integrate new members and launch attacks against computers based in the US (cracking some of them but also use worms, viruses) in order to steal private documents. Some samples of documents and codes are available on the web site, although they don't seem to be secret at all and possible to find by using search engines. Even if this threat appears to be tiny now, it is probably not a hoax and it could grow in the future, just keep an eye on it.
