Anonymous Hack Ugandan Government Websites

Anonymous have hacked into two Ugandan government’s websites yesterday to protest at their homophobic policies which include the “Kill The Gays” bill which is currently being deliberated, the effects of this bill being passed would result in homosexuality being punishable by death. 

Anonymous attacked the websites of the prime minister and Justice Law and Order Sector and issued following statement:



“Today’s hack and deface of theUgandan Prime Minister’s site was the latest in a long list of actions against the government and infrastructure of Uganda forcrimes against LGBT people.

“We will not stand by while LGBT Ugandans are victimized, abused and murdered by a ruthless and corrupt government.

#TheEliteSociety and #Anonymous will continue to target Ugandan government sites and communications until the government of Uganda treats all people including LGBT [people] equally, with respect and dignity and immediately endsthe arrest and harassment of LGBT [people].

“The government of Uganda will not stop us or LGBT people fromstanding up to their hatred and fighting against their abuses . . . 
Equal treatment for ALL people, or you can expect us again.

Another message, which featured an image from Uganda’s recent Pride celebration appeared on the Office of the Prime Minister’s website:

“You have been warned, repeatedly, to expect us. Your violations of the rights of LGBT people have disgusted us. ALL people have the right to live in dignity[,] free from the repression of someone else’s political and religious beliefs.

“You should be PROUD of your LGBT citizens, because they clearly have more balls than youwill ever have.

Real Ugandan Pride is demonstrated in standing up to oppression despite fearing the abuse, torture and murder inflicted on LGBT [people] at the hands of the corrupt government.”
