Anonymous takes down NYSE.com - for a minute
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — Anonymous’ call for a massive attack on the New York Stock Exchange’s website was met Monday — but very, very briefly.
A group calling itself Anonymous, a name used by disparate groups of online “hactivists,” threatened to take down nyse.com at 3:30 p.m. ET today as an extension of the “Occupy Wall Street” demonstrations that have continued into a fourth week.
…Rich Adamonis, a spokesman from the NYSE, confirmed that trading was not impacted.
