The release also included a message blasting the global body and its affiliates for corruption, fraud, and atrocities, along with a warning of more attacks to come.
UN officials tried to downplay the breach, saying all of the information was several years old. But TeamPoison and security experts said that was not the case — much of the data is current, and compromising the UN’s cyber security was a serious job.
In a statement posted online [1] along with the stolen usernames and passwords, the hacker team criticized the global organization on several fronts. “A Senate for Global Corruption, the United Nations sits to facilitate the introduction of a New World Order and a One World Government,” the group said.
Also included was a statement attributed to psychiatrist Brock Chisholm, the first director of the UN World Health Organization. “To achieve a One World Government, it is necessary to remove from the minds of men their individualism, their loyalty to family traditions and national identification,” Chisholm was quoted as saying.
