http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/ireland/2011/0111/1224287236758.html The Irish Times January 11, 2011 TWO INVESTIGATIONS are under way by gardaí and the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner following the theft of personal data belonging to 2,000 members of the public from a Fine Gael website on Sunday night. The party contacted gardaí yesterday after media outlets were e-mailed by someone claiming to be from online activist group Anonymous. The e-mail claimed the group, which has been waging a campaign of cyber attacks in defence of WikiLeaks, was responsible for the attack against the Fine Gael website. A party spokesman said the “extremely sophisticated intervention” on Fine Gael’s US-hosted website is also likely to be investigated by federal authorities. Emblazoned with the Enda Kenny-attributed quote “One of the big failings of politicians is that they talk too much and don’t listen enough,” the Fine Gael website invited users to submit comments along with contact details.
