Test of free speech to the web companies



The cyberwar had begun. Anonymous hackers harmed the companies’ websites in order to revenge them. The companies had cut off people’s ability to donate money to Wikileaks; these companies include Mastercard, Visa, and Paypal. To cause more damage to the companies, hackers had turned their attention to Facebook and Twitter. Since Facebook and Twitter provides free speech to the users, hackers could successfully criticize the companies through those web sites. As a consequence, the companies became vulnerable to hackers’ attacks.
