Anonymous have taken down the website of the Dutch Attorney general, fifteen hours after the announcement of the arrest of one of the people that, according to the Dutch authorities, had helped organize the attack on Mastercard.com.
The website of the Dutch Attorney General and is still unavailable at the time of writing. The website of the Dutch police, that runs at the same server, also went down for a short time. At this moment, the website of the Dutch police is available now and then.
The 16 year old boy that has been arrested Thursday operated under the name of Jeroenz0r and lives in the Hague area. He was one of the operators in the IRC-channel where Anonymous supporters prepare attacks on websites. The DDoS-attacks are being coordinated under the name of Operation Payback via irc.
