Not so long ago, Blogger Izzi had her site hacked. Same happened to Eman and a bunch of responsible bloggers who have been subject to all sort of attacks. Some were physical against their sites, others were social against their personality.

Let me assure you, there are many who are contributing to the effort of silencing people. From your own personal government, to social and e-attacks

It's not like there hasn't been similar attacks against other figures. the infamous Wafaa Sultan had her online site hacked. I'm sure other public figures have daily attacks against their sites. The pentagon claims to repel three billion attacks a DAY! I have no reason not to believe these figures.

If all of that depressed you, here's a little bit of a good news. Most of these attacks are being repelled and most sites are safe. In fact, more sites are becoming secure than say, 8 years ago at the peak of the dot com bubble.

It doesn't take much to bring a site up online. It's only common sense that is needed to keep the sites safe and secure, not only for the site owner but also for he readers.

Always follow the golden rules, if you don't know, ASK! If you're not sure, ASK. The worst thing is that most people who are vulnerable don't even know that they are. Or have a false feeling of safety.

Hackers, it's not cool, it's not romantic, it's not going to turn you into a "Neo" and you will not hook up with a Trinity. Fact is, if you continue on this route, the closest you would be to the female genitalia is the time when you were born. So get off your bumps and get out a little.
