Islamic State-linked hackers target thousands of New Yorkers - UPI.com
UPI reports: "Some 3,000 New York City-area residents, most of them private citizens
with no government ties, were targeted in an Islamic State 'hit list,'
law enforcement said.
The list, intended as a threat, contains as many as 3,600 names. It
includes some employees with the State Department and Homeland Security,
but mostly contains personal information from private citizens. It was
posted on site accessible to only IS supporters and is being considered a
scare campaign from the IS-related group Caliphate Cyber United.
Law enforcement authorities said there is no specific threat to any one
person or group."
Comment: No specific threat? When bureaucracy and PR meet, the results are always the same: inanity ensues.
