WASHINGTON — Hackers based in China have disrupted an online petition signed by nearly 100,000 people which urges Beijing to free outspoken artist Ai Weiwei, the website operator said Wednesday.
Heads of major museums around the world had spearheaded the petition seeking the release of Ai, an acclaimed artist who was taken into custody on April 3 as he tried to fly from Beijing to Hong Kong.
Change.org, a US-based online activist network, said that the website has gone down intermittently since Monday due to a so-called denial-of-service attack originating in China. MORE>>>
