A team of 'ethical' Pakistani
hackers have reportedly
attacked Google's Malaysia
domain, and made the site
inaccessible to users for a
day.The hackers, who call
themselves 'Team Madleets',
and its lead hacker, who
identifies himself a '1337'
have claimed responsibility
for the attack.According to
Dawn News, the hackers'
Facebook page boasts of
attacks on several other
high-profile intrusions
across the world but they
insist that they are focused
only on helping countries
improve their security.The
team said that there is not
much reason behind their
attacks, but only to prove
that security is just an
illusion and it does not
exist, adding that they have
no political intentions
whatsoever.Meanwhile,
Google confirmed that it was
DNS attack but its services
were not affected by it and
users were rather redirected
to another site, the report
added.
