Anonymous Mexico Attacks Government to Protest Against SOPA-Like Law

After operations against the drug lords from the Zetas cartel were postponed, Anonymous Mexico turned its attention to other problems such as the anti-piracy law currently proposed by the country’s government.

According to RT, the sites of the Senate and the Interior Ministry were temporarily taken offline as part of the protest against the Mexican variant of the US Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA).

Mexican officials condemn these acts, claiming that protests are allowed, but taking down websites, even for short periods, is illegal.

In other parts of the world, the problems with SOPA and PIPA seem to be over, activists and hacktivists currently manifesting their dislike regarding the new Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA).

For now, many of the movements are taking place in the real world, but we can expect them to move online at any time.
