Bay Area commuters, fresh off yet another BART protest and downtown San Francisco station shutdown last night, might be interested to see some of the faces behind the shadowy hacking group that has helped organize repeated demonstrations against the transit agency.The political news site Talking Points Memo has learned the identities of 14 of the "hacktivists" affiliated with the group Anonymous. Through a federal Freedom of Information Act request, TPM obtained mugshots of the alleged hackers and posted them on its website.However, it now appears that TPM's website is experiencing technical difficulties . (We can't open the site at all.) It's still unclear if this is retaliation by Anonymous for the article. Gawker has also published a collection of the mugshots here TPM got the information from the FBI, which arrested the men and women (mostly men; only two of the 14 images are posted are women) for launching a cyberattack on PayPal If, in fact, Anonymous has taken down the TPM site as retribution for publishing photos of its members, we gotta say: Give us a break, guys (and minority of girls). This is the same group that posted photos of the genitalia of BART spokesman Linton Johnson . Now they're going to get sensitive about their faces being available for public viewing?We can understand some degree of embarrassment over the outsize representation of goatees in this small sample of alleged Anonymous members -- six out of 14, to be exact -- but laying into good journalists for doing their job is crossing the line. ||||| As some of you may have noticed, TPM was offline and inaccessible for roughly 8 hours starting just before 5 PM on the East Coast this evening. The site was the victim of a massive denial of service (DDOS) attack. Here’s what we know about what happened. 
  
 This morning TPM published an article on the Anonymous ‘hacktivist’ group featuring mugshots of 14 people accused of being members of the group and participating in an attack on Paypal after it refused to continue servicing Wikileaks. This was part of our on-going coverage of the ‘Anonymous’ story. 
  
 Then just before 5 PM the site went down. Because of the way our servers are configured it was not immediately clear to our tech staff or our service provider that a DDOS was behind the outage. And as rumors began to spread that we had been targeted by Anonymous, we contacted one news organization to say that contrary to their report we had no evidence of a malicious attack. That was true at the time we said it. But soon after that it became clear that we in fact were under a DDOS attack. 
  
 TPM is hosted by one of the second or third largest hosting services in the country. And they were eventually forced to disable a portion of our server array because the scope of the attack was affecting their ability to service and keep online their other clients. 
  
 (Here’s a report our TPM tech reporters published while the site was offline explaining just what’s involved in a DDOS attack.) 
  
 We had and still have no direct evidence that Anonymous was behind the attack. However, TPM has been online for 11 years and had never experienced a DDOS attack until today. So, given that Anonymous’s signature has been denial of service attacks and the backlash against our publication of the photos, the logical inference is as apparent to us as anyone else. 
  
 Once we realized what was happening our staff mobilized on various fronts — standing up a Tumblr site to continue reporting about the attack itself as well as the stories we were reporting on before it started. We reported the attack to readers via Twitter and posted a statement on Facebook while publishing at TPM’s home in exile on Tumblr. 
  
 Over the course of the evening we were in extensive contact with law enforcement as our tech team did amazing work trying to get us back online. Eventually, with an amazing level of outside assistance we were able to get the site back online shortly before 1 AM. At the moment, the site is hobbled but online and accessible and we continue to work to fortify it against future attacks. 
  
 There are some technical and legal details I haven’t included since the attack is on-going. But those are the essential points. In the statement we released while the site was offline I wrote … 
  
 We are lucky enough to live in a country where the risks and consequences of practicing journalism are usually quite light. Certainly compared to other countries. This episode is trivial in comparison to what numerous journalists have suffered in other countries when people retaliate over what is reported about them. Still, even in such minor forms, reporting the facts about criminal activity and the news of the day is not without consequences. But we believe in what we do. So we can take it. 
  
 And that pretty much encapsulates our take on what happened. 
  
 We appreciate your support and continued readership. |||||

What an odd coincidence: After Talking Points Memo ran mugshots of 14 alleged members of Anonymous who face hacking charges, the site went down for about eight hours yesterday, the victim of a denial-of-service attack. It's back up now, but editor Josh Marshall writes that the attack is still going on, and TPM is using various end-arounds (including Tumblr) to keep publishing. He's got updates here and here. "We had and still have no direct evidence that Anonymous was behind the attack," writes Marshall. "However, TPM has been online for 11 years and had never experienced a DDOS attack until today. So, given that Anonymous's signature has been denial of service attacks and the backlash against our publication of the photos, the logical inference is as apparent to us as anyone else." At SF Weekly, Peter Jamison calls out Anonymous: "This is the same group that posted photos of the genitalia of BART spokesman Linton Johnson. Now they're going to get sensitive about their faces being available for public viewing?"
