Cyber-attacks hit e-G8 web forum

French president Nicolas Sarkozy's 'e-G8' summit on the power of the
internet suffered a technical hiccup when cyber-attacks disrupted the
forum's wireless connection, organisers said Wednesday. Since Tuesday
'we have been undergoing a series of attacks and attempted attacks
from people outside' the wireless service providing internet access to
journalists and delegates, an e-G8 official who asked not to be named
told the AFP. The cyber-attacks failed to cut off access but caused
'disruption' of the wifi connection and the forum's video streaming in
the tent where politicians and the world's top media bosses were
meeting, the official added.
