Anonymous' hackers accessed the website of Greece's justice ministry, posting a message of protest against the EU and IMF-inspired austerity policies.
"You have introduced a new dictatorship upon your people's shoulders and allowed the bankers and the monarchs of the EU to enslave them both economically and politically," the group's message said. "You have joined the IMF (International Monetary Fund) against your people's acquiescence...democracy was given birth in your country but now you have killed it."
The protest was announced by anon Anonops on Twitter: "#Anonymous hack the #Greek Justice Ministry's website >> bit.ly/hrstfU". The website was taken offline until it was secure.
The hacktivists also criticised Greece for joining the international copyright deal called Acta, or Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, along with Poland and other European countries.
