Red Hackers come back!
Date: May 03, 2005Source: rediff.com
The "Red Hacker Alliance," the largest and earliest hacking outfit in China has regrouped after a short break.
With some 20,000 hackers, the alliance was once the fifth largest in the world. Its Web site, set up at the end of 2000, had nearly 80,000 registered members at its peak.
The task of the alliance was to prevent hacking attacks from foreign countries. But the network was shut down last year for no specific reason, and its founder, nicknamed Lion, said in an e-mail that the Web site existed in name only.
A sophomore who majored in computer sciences at University of Electronic Science and Technology of China in Chengdu, is now responsible for personnel management of the group and the Web site maintenance.
