14 DAY TRIAL // Anonymous hackers have defaced the official website of Spain’s People’s Party (Partido Popular), the country’s governing party.
In addition to defacing the website – which has been restored –, the hacktivists have also leaked 5 gigabytes of documents that allegedly represent the party’s financial accounts from 1990 to 2011.
Darknet.in reports that the party refused to release the documents after a judge overseeing a political corruption scandal asked to see them.
The information has been posted on torrent sites, blogs and other websites so that citizens can analyze it.
According to a video statement published by the hackers a couple of days ago, the documents show that the People’s Party has used public money to buy expensive cars, a pony and other items.
The hacktivists are displeased with the fact that the party keeps talking about austerity and cuts while it “robs” the people.
