Anonymous has recently turned its attention to the human rights struggle 
in China, hacking and defacing hundreds of government and commercial Web 
sites in that country.

The online hactivist group claims to have compromised more than 500 Web 
sites over the past couple of days, defacing them with messages claiming 
responsibility for the breach while The Who's "Baba O'Riley" plays in 
the background. (A complete list of the Web sites Anonymous claims to 
have hacked.)

The group posted the following message -- still visible at the time of 
this publishing -- predicting the downfall of the Chinese government, to 
the Central Business District in Chengdu:

     Dear Chinese government, you are not infallible, today websites
     are hacked, tomorrow it will be your vile regime that will fall.
     So expect us because we do not forgive, never. What you are doing
     today to your Great People, tomorrow will be inflicted to you.
     With no mercy.
