ATTACK ORIGINATED FROM YAHOO SERVERS
THE 5TH ESTATE
04/09/2014
Yahoo was contacted immediately and the accounts affected were repeatedly requested to be closed over a 24 hour period with no response.
It is now quite apparent who Yahoo works for and with. They are clearly under the auspices of the NSA and continue to allow U.S. government free and total access to user accounts.
It goes without saying that Yahoo is a rogue company, traitors to America and Americans.
A class action suit by the millions of Yahoo users who have had their accounts hacked and spied upon by the NSA and other "OGA" should be immediately initiated and pursued.
The 5th Estate urges all Yahoo users to BOYCOTT ALL MONETARY TRANSACTIONS with Yahoo and their affiliates, advertisers and business partners.
The 5th Estate now believes that the bogus "data breach" story was initiated by Yahoo in order to cover for their eventual exposure in allowing the NSA and Obama government stooges to illegally access yahoo user accounts, thereby being able to claim that it was a result of an external hacking.

Yahoo! Mail hacked, passwords and user info nabbed

Hackers broke into Yahoo!’s free email service, stealing the passwords and usernames of an undisclosed number of the firm’s 273 million accounts worldwide.
Yahoo! said it recently discovered the breach, and suspects that malware was employed to take the user information from an undisclosed third party database.
"We have no evidence that they were obtained directly from Yahoo!'s systems," wrote Jay Rossiter, the senior vice president in charge of Yahoo!’s platforms and personalization products.
Apart from seeking out and ultimately prosecuting those responsible for the attack, Rossiter said Yahoo! had “implemented additional measures to block attacks against Yahoo!’s systems.”
The company also reset the passwords of those affected, and sent out text messages to them so that they could “re-secure their accounts.”
Yahoo! is reportedly the second-largest worldwide email service, after Google's Gmail, making it a likely target for hackers and online scammers.
The firm recognized this threat, acknowledging “security attacks are unfortunately becoming a more regular occurrence.”
"It's an old trend, but it's much more exaggerated now because the programs the bad guys use are much more sophisticated now," Avivah Litan, a security analyst at the technology research firm Gartner, told AP. "We're clearly under attack."
Analysts said that access to email accounts is part and parcel of more serious breaches which target online banking and shopping. Security experts have warned users against using one password across multiple sites, although this does not account for the problem of email accounts being used to reset passwords.
For example, hackers could attempt to log into a user’s bank account and ask for a password reminder to be sent by email.
Collecting as much information about an individual as possible also facilitates identity theft.
In December, a hardware outage in one of Yahoo!’s storage systems left around 1 million users without access to their email accounts.
THE 5TH ESTATE

On Tuesday April 8 2014, The 5th Estate came under a sustained massive DOS attack through Yahoo servers.

This followed dozens of death threats initiated in the United States by retired and active duty military officers and SNCO's following 5th Estate coverage of the Ft. Hood Shootings.
Should these threats not cease immediately The 5th Estate will respond by publishing those that were signed, including empty threats dating back through the years guaranteeing a swift end to more than a few careers while needlessly tarnishing reputations by pouring gasoline on an already raging media fire surrounding the Ft. Hood tragedy.
The Yahoo hackers then moved on to disable the Zone Alarm Pro and SMADAV automatic virus updates on 5th Estate computers, open ports and disable firewall commands. These breaches were manually closed and firewalls are once more viable, this time with auto alarms in place to instantly notify of attempted breaches of individual ports and security protocols.
Yahoo was contacted immediately and the accounts affected were repeatedly requested to be closed over a 24 hour period with no response.
Yahoo ignored these requests completely, refused The 5th Estate access to the accounts and then allowed the hackers to continue to utilize them to attack the bureau despite repeated written warnings that the accounts had been compromised and unlocked.
Yahoo users are urged to CHANGE PASSWORDS IMMEDIATELY. Do not accept any communications from supposed Yahoo administrators without verification.

The company disclosed scant details of the coordinated hack attack, saying it had teamed up with federal law enforcement in the US, where 81 million accounts are registered, to investigate the security breach.
