Propaganda Against Andre or Armenian People?
As the recent web events suggest, Azeris are slow to put up with
Andre's coming performance at the Eurovision and his possible
success. They are also slow to put up with our achievement in the
war that they themselves levied on us. To express their resentment
they turn to the Internet but, alas, using it to deceit others.
It transpired yesterday that several Armenian websites are in the
hands of Azeri hackers. Singer Andre's website (www.andre.am)
www.yandex.am/forum, www.itarmenia.com, www.myyerevan.am,
www.telecenters.am, www.myyerevan.am, www.armfootball.am and a number
of other Armenian sites were attacked by Azeri hackers who, having
broken security, erased all information replacing it with information,
pictures and links on alleged Khojaly massacre.
www.andre.am website is hosted at Dolphin Company's server in the
USA. Talking to Daily Azg the company's network administrator Khachatur
Meliksetian said that they immediately closed access to the site when
the website designer turned to them in the morning.
Dolphin's American chiefs have already confirmed that Azerbaijani
hackers are behind these crimes.
In such cases when the server is located in a foreign country a
state has to apply to the Interpol. But to have grounds for this,
the police should have a complaint from the injured party.
Reportedly the Azerbaijani criminals attacked the website of Alfael
Production Center (www.alfael.am) too. Alfael representative Vardges
Kirakosian informed something like this happened 2-3 weeks ago. Azeris
hacked the Center's website notifying that its their work.
If years ago Turks and Azeris used the Internet merely to
disseminate offenses, then today their anti-Armenian propaganda
gets more well-weighed and politicized. For someone unaware of
history information posted at Azeri website can seem convincing
and truthful. One can only dread of the effect that these websites
with ensanguined posters and lively graphic design can produce in
uninformed people.
Should we fight back deceit with deceit by hacking Azeri and Turkish
websites or should we hope that they will some day become mature
enough for a fair game?
