As a long-time crypto investor with a penchant for keeping my finger on the pulse of global tech news, I must admit that the recent turn of events surrounding Telegram CEO Pavel Durov has left me both intrigued and concerned. The fact that a foreign government is experiencing such a significant cyber attack in response to a high-profile arrest is unprecedented.
The protest against the arrest of Telegram Founder and CEO Pavel Durov by officials in France is taking a new twist as the government’s websites are now under attack. With more than 24 hours in custody, the government faces serious reprisals from different ends.
Solidarity For Telegram CEO: France Govt Websites Down
It’s rare for a foreign government to experience intense cyber-attacks, as reported by Le Parisien. At least two websites have been temporarily shut down in this instance: one is the official government site housing current laws and regulations, while the other belongs to the National Agency for the Safety of Medicines and Health Products (ANSM). These downtimes were caused by Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.
According to previous reports, Pavel Durov is currently dealing with approximately 12 separate accusations, which could potentially lead to his detention for up to 96 hours.
