Aiplex was the first target. The managing director admitted a couple of weeks ago that the company uses DDoS attacks of its own on piracy websites such as BitTorrent search engines and trackers when they don’t comply with takedown notices from content owners. Aiplex’s website went down almost immediately after Anonymous began its attacks, so a new, more ambitious target was selected: the MPAA. That too fell to the wrath of the web forum geeks.
