The hacktivist group Anonymous may be setting its sights on the city of Orlando, Florida next, if an anonymous press release which has landed in our inbox is to be believed (see bellow). The group is threatening to take down a different city-related website every day, starting with
Orlando Florida Guide, which doesn't even appear to be owned by the city of Orlando (it is
registered to an organization called Utopia, administered by a man named Steven Ridenour). So any random website extolling the virtues of Orlando could be targeted. The DDOS attacks are justified in the press release as retaliation for the repeated
arrests of members of a non-profit group called
Food Not Bombs, which feeds homeless people in a park without a permit. The leader of the group, Keith McHenry, was also
recently arrested. "This is a declaration of war," writes Anonymous in its press release describing "Operation Orlando."
