Hackers working under the name of the Anonymous hacktivist collective hit a U.S. government website on Saturday, replacing its home page with a 1,340-word text detailing its frustrations with the way the American legal system works and a threat to release "secrets" gathered from U.S. government websites. The website of the U.S. Sentencing Commission, which establishes sentencing policies for the federal court system, was offline for much of Saturday as a result of the attack.
