13 Members of Anonymous Indicted for Cyberattacks 
--------------------------------------------------


 
A U.S. grand jury has indicted 13 members of the hacker group Anonymous
for launching cyberattacks on an array of websites as part of a campaign
for transparency and free access to information. Among other targets,
the group is accused of attacking credit card companies that blocked
payments to Wiki Leaks and targeting film industry groups in retaliation
for the shutdown of the video file-sharing website, "The Pirate Bay."
