TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Decentralized international hacktivist group Anonymous on Saturday (Oct. 29) hacked into the websites of the Chinese Ministry of Emergency Management and Mino Space to retaliate for an editing war on Wikipedia in which entries about its activities had been heavily deleted by alleged Chinese operatives.What was originally an extensive entry for the hacktivist in August had been cut down to a few paragraphs by October.Anonymous representative "Allez-opi_omi" told Taiwan News the collective suspected that the sudden, arbitrary edits were part of a Chinese influence operation exploiting existing system biases at Wikipedia.They claimed that the hack into China's law enforcement website and Mino Space interface had been carried out in "light mode" as one of its team members had come down with "your COVID Pro Max."(Anonymous image)Taking a jab at Wikipedia, the group wrote that it is "treated by deletionists/puritanists as a plaything like TikTok" instead of being or becoming a "big thing" in archival science."
