WikiLeaks Back Online After it ‘Moves to Switzerland’
1 min readMSNBC
WikiLeaks went offline for several hours late Thursday after a U.S. firm providing its domain name system said the controversial website had come under mass denial of service attacks.
EveryDNS.net said it had “terminated” its services to WikiLeaks at 10 p.m. ET Thursday as the attacks and others expected in the future would “threaten the stability” of the company’s services to nearly 500,000 other websites.
However, at about 4:10 a.m. ET Friday, WikiLeaks tweeted that it had moved “to Switzerland,” and linked to a new web address for the site.
