An 18-year-old man has been charged by British police in connection with an internet attack that saw Mumsnet hacked, users’ accounts breached, passwords stolen, and the site blasted offline.
David Gerrard Buchanan, 18, from Haslemere, Surrey, was charged by the Metropolitan Police’s Cyber Crime Unit (MPCCU) with two counts under section 1 of the Computer Misuse Act 1990 and one count under section 3, in connection with attacks last year against the immensely popular British parenting website.
