Anonymous hacks Golden Dawn's New York website

Hackers with the group Anonymous say they disabled the New York website of Golden Dawn, the far-right political organization in Greece. The site has been unavailable since Tuesday.



On Saturday Digital Journal reported Greece's Golden Dawn (Chrysi Avgi) had opened a branch in New York.

This is not the first time Golden Dawn has suffered an interruption to its communication network. In May 2012 Digital Journal reported the organization's Greek website had been suspended by WordPress. The website was soon replaced and the party also communicates with supporters through a weekly newsletter available in Greece.

On Monday, the Greek-American organization American Hellenic Educational Progressive Association (AHEPA) denounced the rise of Golden Dawn and the establishment of their branch office in New York.

 At the time of writing the New York website of Golden Dawn continues to be down.
