14 DAY TRIAL // Anonymous hacktivists have initiated a new campaign called OpAreva. The operation’s main target is Areva, a French public multinational industrial conglomerate that mines uranium in countries such as Niger, Gabon, Kazakhstan and the Central African Republic.
The activists are unhappy with the fact that the company makes large amounts of money through its operations in these countries, but does little to help them and their people. The hacktivists are particularly concerned about the situation in Niger.
Anonymous urges journalists to investigate Areva’s activities and expose the company’s wrongdoings.
“Niger is already in an uncertain and tense state and Anonymous will not stand by while Areva unleashes the same hell we've witnessed in the Central African Republic, Gabon and Nigeria in Niger,” the hackers noted.
It depends on who’s getting involved in this operation, but we’ll probably see some DDOS attacks and data leaks these days.
