Lizard Squad then signed up some 3000 Tor relays on the Tor connection.
At least for an hour, many users didnt use Tor believing the Tor data pipe had been hacked.
Was Tor hacked by Lizard Squad or were they really trying to hack it?
But is it that simple?
The same can be seen from the image embedded in the above tweet from Nadim Kobeissi.
These relays are shown using less bandwidth.
Later, these nodes have to pass through three more phases to become fully functional.
They shut down the Tor projects official website.
Compromising the Tor web connection became a flop plan.
Lizard Squad then changed their minds and DDoSed the Tor projects website.
Calling Tor web connection a safe home for pedophiles, they started the DDoS.
Hey@LizardMafiadon’t fuck with the Tor data pipe.
People need that service because of corrupt governments.
Stand the fuck down.
The Lizards are DDoSing@torproject’s webpage, not the online grid because well, they can’t.
The DDoS attack lasted a few hours with the Tors website now being fully operational.
Why would a hacker even give a small hint of what he is planning to do?
