Middle East- and North Africa-based criminal hackers are preparing cyberattacks this week against the websites of high-profile U.S. government agencies, banks and other companies, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

The attacks, dubbed #OpUSA, for Operation USA, will begin Tuesday, the department said in a warning bulletin circulated to the private sector last week. The bulletin was first obtained and posted online by blogger and cybercrime expert Brian Krebs.

I am not sure what to make of it, but have noticed over the weekend that someone is actively filtering and blocking my accesss to sites on the web. It is happening on multiple computers on my local network. I am confident it is not my internet supplier.

When I have FR and websites related to the Benghazi (and other similar topics) open at the same time, my browser will stop accessing some sites. It is most noted when I have FR and Twitter both open at the same time.

If I disconnect from the network, clear my cache and re-access the network, the problem goes away. ??

I doubt it is hackers doing this. Could be Big Sis.

Don’t know about silencing Rush (big job) but I am convinced that Obozo and team will do all they can to silence the discussion of Benghazi. It has fatal political implications for he and his merry band of Commies.

Who did they warn? Big Sis?

I am more concerned about Big Sis filtering the web than I am about a bunch of hackers and Jihadi’s.
