Ministry: Don’t accuse govt of cyber attacks

THE Communications and Information Ministry has urged the public not to accuse the government of being behind a recent string of digital attacks against vocal critics, adding that the perpetrators may intend to pit the government against the public.

The ministry’s informatics applications director-general, Semuel Abrijani Pangerapan, said there was no evidence of the government being behind the attacks and urged the public to work together with the government to solve the hacking instead.
