1 WikiLeaks Mirror Sites Lose Web Hosting Services 報告者:劉旭哲

2 前情提要: – 11/28 公布文件 & 移至 Amazon Cloud – 12/03 Amazon 終止與 Wikileaks 的服務 – 12/09 Amazon 遭受報復者的 DDoS – 12/09~ 專注 DDoS 於 PayPal 、 MasterCard 等不提 供帳戶服務的銀行 And now… ???

3 Web host SiteGround has suspended the accounts of at least two WikiLeaks mirror sites SiteGround and its upstream provider, SoftLayer

4 Claim the presence of the files put the host at risk for a DDoS attack. Violate the company’s Acceptable Use Policy and ToS. One user, Mark McCoy, posted on his blog the entire e-mail thread between him, SiteGround and SoftLayer.

5 In letter, initially informed McCoy : "some illegal activity" had been performed through his site. "severely" violated SiteGround’s Terms of Use and Acceptable Use Policy. – Be hacked 〈 FTP 〉 – McCoy got log about his account.

6 SiteGround said in the letter that when "illegal activity" is detected The company had to "take immediate actions to stop that activity," or risk having the entire server "unplugged." – 要求刪除文件或停止使用服務

7 “Before I delete the ‘evidence,’ could you tell me what the exact violation is ? "wrote McCoy He had malware or an exploit on the site, not HTML and Javascript files. – But no update It's incredibly disappointing to see more service providers cutting off customers simply – Because they decide (or fear) that content is too volatile or unpopular to host – They can cut off anyone for anything

8 WikiLeaks lost its Web and DNS services shortly after it began posting the leaked cables. Since then, it has moved to non-U.S.-based providers and relies on more than 1,000 mirror sites to stay online.
