An anonymous reader writes: A hacker collective calling themselves YourVikingdom intermittently took down Indiana’s state website, www.in.gov, in response to Indiana Governor Mike Pence signing a controversial “religious freedom” bill, that many say legalizes discrimination against gays. The group said, “Since Indiana’s Gov decided to sign the religious bill allowing to discriminate it’s time for #OPIndiana to start,” and linked to an article on Perez Hilton’s website about the bill.
It's likely that this group is related to Vikingdom2015, which has gone on a rampage hacking state government websites across the country. Their Twitter handle lists the location as Russia but later tweeted that they are not based in Russia.
