Biology Fortified: Independent biotech site under attack from mystery anti-GMO activists

Open letter from Biology Fortified (Biofortified.org):

We have an unfortunate announcement to make. For about one month, Biology Fortified has been the target of an ongoing Denial of Service attack (an attempt to make a machine or network resource unavailable to its intended users. Although the means to carry out, the motives for, and targets of a DoS attack vary, it generally consists of efforts to temporarily or indefinitely interrupt or suspend services of a host connected to the Internet), which has been taking our sites offline.

We have prepared a video announcement to tell you more about it, and to make an appeal to the attacker for them to stop trying to take down our site. We are seeking the support of our readers and everyone else who agrees that this kind of attack has no place in debates about science.

Someone – we don’t know who – has been denying our right to freedom of speech and expression, and denying your right to read what we write, and access the resources we publish through our site. We need your support to continue to defend ourselves against this attack. Please consider making a donation to help keep us online!
