[liberationtech] Dalai Lama's Website Hacked, Now Serving Malware

[Nadim Kobeissi]

Hey Libtech,
The Dalai Lama's Chinese website has been hacked and is now serving malware to visitors in China:

"Hackers have attacked Dalai Lama's Chinese-language website, installing an unidentified piece of malware which could have compromised visitors' computers, a spokesperson said.
The brief attack targeted the Tibet.net, which is the official site of the Tibetan government-in-exile, providing information about the parliament, cabinet, administrative departments and public offices.
“We are a prominent target for attacks by Chinese hackers,” Tashi Phuntsok, a spokesperson for the exiled government based in the northern Indian town of Dharamshala, told AFP news agency."
