RIAA Goes Offline, Joins MPAA As Latest Victim Of Successful DDoS Attacks

In an offense called�"Operation Payback," members of the Internet collective Anonymous have organized what seems to be anti anti-piracy movement. Dubbed by Torrent Freak as the�"protest of the future" the group has been pretty busy over the past 36 hours launching�DDoS attacks on the MPAA, Indian anti-piracy site Aiplex Software and today both RIAA.com and RIAA.org. The attacks are�apparently in retaliation for comments the CEO of Aiplex software made about his firm being hired by the film industry to take down The Pirate Bay.
