“FLUFFI BUNNI” British authorities have arrested a man believed to head a group of hackers known as “Fluffi Bunni”. The group used a stuffed pink rabbit to mark attacks that humiliated some of the world’s premier computer security organisations. Fluffi Bunni captured the attention of the FBI days after the September 11 attacks, when thousands of websites were vandalised with a single break-in that included the message, “Fluffi Bunni Goes Jihad”. The FBI characterised the act in a November 2001 report as an anti-American cyberprotest against the war on terrorism. Lynn Htun, 24, was arrested by Scotland Yard detectives today on outstanding forgery charges while attending a prominent trade show in London for computer security professionals, InfoSecurity Europe 2003, authorities said. A US official said Htun is wanted in America in connection with a series of high-profile hacking cases blamed on Fluffi Bunni. Full Story
