New York Times Hacked Again

NYTimesHackedAgain

As you can see from my screenshot above, the venerable New York Times which I pay to access, is having major issues.

According to Suzanne Choney at NBCNews.com this is the result of yet another hack of the NYTimes.com website. From the article:

The New York Times website was hacked Tuesday, the site down for a second time in two weeks, with a group known as the Syrian Electronic Army believed to be behind Tuesday’s hack. 

Don’t forget that the Chinese specifically targeted the New York Times late in 2012 as well.  I also suspect the NASDAQ shutdown last week was the result of hackers too.

Are we entering a new stage of cyberterrorism or is this just the same old, same old?
