Hackers της teamς RedHack κατάφεραν να παραβιάσουν τα συστήματα του EGO (ego.gov.tr) , μιας κρατικής υπηρεσίας του δήμου της Άγκυρας.
Following the breach of state-run servers, the hackers uncovered some misconduct by Melih Gökçek, mayor of Ankara.
Οι hackers υποστηρίζουν οι εργαζόμενοι του τμήματος δημοσίων συγκοινωνιών "ενισχύουν το προφίλ του δημάρχου" με την εγγραφή ψεύτικων λογαριασμών στο Twitter.
"Οι λογαριασμοί αυτοί χρησιμοποιούνται για να μεγαλώσει ο αριθμούς των followers και να παραπληροφορήσουν την κοινή γνώμη" δήλωσαν εκπρόσωποι της χακτιβιστικής ομάδας RedHack. "Οι δημοτικοί υπάλληλοι εργάζονται ακούραστα για να χειραγωγήσουν τα social media."
Οι hackers δημοσίευσαν screenshots που παρουσιάζουν διευθύνσεις ηλεκτρονικού ταχυδρομείου, ονόματα χρηστών και codeς accessof these individuals. The General Directorate email credentials of EGO employees, including those belonging to website administrators, were also leaked.

One of the reasons RedHack hit the subdomain ego.gov.tr is because of the collaboration between Tamer Sahin, a famous Turkish hacker, and the mayor of Ankara. The dictators have said that this collaboration shows that the authorities have begun to panic.
Last year, too many people were arrested by the police on suspicion of being linked to RedHack's hackers. However, the team declined to have any involvement with them, and continued to attack very high profile websites.
The hackers added that they also managed to breach a government FTP server, and presented evidence that authorities are using pirated software.
